FAIR. Water lightly stained; 53 degrees; 5.91’ low. Largemouth bass are fair, continuing just a bit shallower still among creeks and timber.

Typical staging places are the aquatic vegetation, especially in river arms on bass jigs and thick worms. Crappie are fair on live minnows choosing natural structures, especially at night. Catfish are good on stinkbait, live, and cut bait.

Proctor

GOOD. Water lightly stained, 51 degrees; 0.41 low. Largemouth bass are good on finesse worms, jerk baits, cranks, and skirted jigs in near brushy creeks, timber edges, and rocky shorelines.
