The bite was hot until cooler nights moved in this week to alter the bass bite a little but conditions should improve but week's end. Carolina-rigged lizards, shaky heads and Brush Hogs are all producing. This week will see plenty of action as another 100 boat event starts their pre-fish Monday and event Thursday-Sunday so be careful as they travel fast. Additionally, the recent good bite has added to the traffic as the word spread. The crappie are also staging and anglers are reminded to conserve their take as these fish are laden with eggs.
