GOOD. Water slightly stained; 68 degrees; 1.05 feet below pool. Largemouth bass are good in shallow water near the rising water level, then moving to a medium depth in 10 feet of water once sun rises. Crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and Texas rigs are catching fish. Blue catfish are good in the 18-22 feet with minnows, and shrimp for the set lines. The night bite has been good with cut perch. Channel catfish continue to be small, but good almost everywhere on the lake. Big bream have been good in shallower areas near the boat docks, and on concrete and bridge horizontal structure with worms, and small live minnows. There is some early white bass schooling action after dawn as we come up on the full moon. White crappie remain deep, so use live scopes to find them. Once you find the crappie they are hitting minnows and jigs. Back crappie are around rocks and concrete 6-22 feet of water with jigs. You will not need a live scope to find them, just use traditional structure hunting methods and find them. Report by Jim Beggerly, Jim’s Fishing Lake Palestine.
