Report for March 15th, 2001 With the water's surface temperature at 46 degrees, the fishing seems to be on the verge of really turning on, but for right this minute it's still a little off. Once the water hits 52 degrees, it should be prime time to start catching crappie. The water is clear on the upper and lower ends despite recent rains. Some crappie are being caught, but they are very scattered and it's been best to cover alot of ground to find them. They are holding in the deep water (8-18 feet) and are being caught on or near the bottom. Minnows are producing best and a few crappie are being caught up in the lily pad stems with blue and white or black and chartreuse jigs. Bass fishing is starting to pick up. They aren't being caught in numbers, but they make up for the quantity with quality. Some good bass, averaging 3-4 lbs., are being taken with jigs and crankbaits in the lily pad stems. Catfish are biting in the deep water of the lower basin area. Drifting vinyl catfish worms dipped in Sonny's stinkbait is one of the preferred methods. The first reports of Bluegill being caught started this week. Grizzly jigs tipped with a wax worm fished under a slip bobber are producing fair results. Jeremy says the full moon has something to do with this sudden lull during the start of prime fishing. When the full moon is accompanied by calm nights, the fish will feed alot at night which obviously slows their feeding during daylight hours. Now is the time to be ready though. The best fishing is going to start anytime now. Only mother nature knows exactly when. Click
