Successful Archery Draw Hunt:

season.

Fishing activity slows, but not the
bites:
Fishing reports
are few and far between, due to the annual seasonal drop in fishing activity.
However, those fishermen going are catching fish. The bass have moved up to the
edges of the vegetation, following the shad migration from deeper water.
Crappie are being caught in the main lake around cover 8-10 feet deep. Catfish
are still falling for baits suspended from jugs, and surprisingly are biting
best on shallow-rigged jugs in deep water. Big striped bass are holding on deep
contour changes in the lower main lake but are on the move — here one day, way
over there the next. They are constantly in search of
food.
