GOOD. Water normal stain; 56 degrees; 3.56 feet above pool. Crappie are good as fish start to pull off of main channels and move into staging areas to spawn. Look for these fish to be getting shallower as the temperatures warm up. The best bite is plastic jigs over minnows. Report by River Bottom Bo...

GOOD. Water normal stain; 57 degrees; 0.63 feet below pool. The water temperature should warm up quickly with the warmer forecast. Crappie are good in shallow water with minnows or jigs.

FAIR. 46 degrees; 4.06 feet below pool. Fishing has slowed significantly due to high winds and cold temperatures, with water temperatures dropping back into the mid-50s. A few fish are moving shallow, but presentations must be worked very slowly to get bites. The most consistent action is coming fro...

SLOW. Water muddy; 46 degrees; 9.01 feet below pool. Water temperatures in the pockets are 58-62 degrees, and the lake has risen slightly but remains about 9 feet low. A recent cool front is expected to slow the bite for a few days, but fish should soon begin moving up to scout bedding areas. Focus ...

FAIR. Water stained; 54 degrees. Conditions are steadily improving as water temperatures rise, and fishing pressure remains light. Largemouth bass activity should increase with more sunny, water days as they transition into pre-spawn patterns, moving from deeper water into the shallows to feed in pr...

FAIR. Water slightly stained; 58 degrees. The water temperature rose significantly bringing some bass to spawning beds a few weeks earlier than normal. Cast a Texas rigged craw to catch these fish. Largemouth bass are excellent in shallow water with a bladed jig, or large swimbaits. Crappie are fair...

FAIR. Water stained; 57.5 degrees; full pool. The lake is at full pool and the bite has improved as expected. Quality fish are being found in and around timber near creek channels, making this a great time for power-fishing presentations such as squarebills, jerkbaits, glide baits, topwaters, and de...

GOOD. Stained; 62 degrees; 0.02 below pool. Largemouth bass are fair on bladed jigs and shallow diving crankbaits in shallow water. Work swim jigs close to the banks and around docks.
