This Week's Fishing Report

Week of January 14, 2026

SLOW. Water stained; 55 degrees; 0.54 feet above pool. Search in 15-25 feet of water in creek and river channels in the lake. Target the edges with depth changes like deep pockets in the mouth of the inlets and slews. Check standing timber and other structures. Live bait is best, but live bait or jigs need to be presented extremely slow. Report by Greg Culverhouse, Crappie King.
