This Week's Fishing Report
Week of January 14, 2026
GOOD. Water normal stain; 53 degrees; 1.64 feet below pool. White bass are grouped up on deep flats 32-38 feet of water. The south end of the lake is the most productive area. Locate schools of bait and fish those areas with the 2-3 jigs tied above a 1 ounce slab. Thumping the boat produces the best chances. The fish also were on the lower half of the water column. Crappie are fair and moving out from brush in the deeper water along flats and levees. Big blue catfish and larger eating size catfish are on the deep flats lower and mid lake. Drifting with large cut bait best. Report by John Varner, John Varner's Guide Service.
