Report by: Clint's Bait and Tackle
Hello to everyone out there. It's been a couple of weeks since I gave a
report but there just hasn't been much going on because of the heat and
everything had gone to spawn. Now the spawn is over and the fishing is picking
up again so I will let you know what we have been told.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Crappie--there have been some caught in the last couple weeks. They
are a little deep as expected but they are hitting on minnows and an few jigs.
They have been between 10 to 16 inches. This is from the City lake and the res.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Walleye--there have many caught while drifting and trolling in both
the city lake and the res. Crawlers and minnows have worked real well getting
them to bite plus some have used small perch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Bass----the bass have been doing real well according to what some
have said. At the city lake and the res they are hitting minnows, crawlers, and
some lures. From what we have been told this does not
take place everyday. But on some days they are so easy to
get.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Catfish--the channels have been doing real good. They seem to be
feeding on minnows, crawlers, livers, shad sides and guts. Some of the big ones
have been hitting on goldfish and crawdads. We have seen all sizes of channels.
The flatheads are feeding again and seem to like perch, goldfish, crawdads, and
crawlers. This week the biggest fish we have seen is a 48 pound yellow cat. He
was caught at the city lake on a perch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
We are open 7 days a week and carry a complete line of bait and tackle
for all of your fishing needs. We also can give you the latest on what the fish
are doing. As most of you know, if we aren't in the shop when you need us for
something all you have to do is walk across the street and get us.
