The topwater bite slowed, but it’s not gone

The lake fell to 6 percent of capacity, and fishing has been good. The topwater bite slowed, but it’s not gone. Anglers also used finesse baits on points and near rocky structure to fool plenty of smaller grade bass. Squarebills were another effective bait last week. Black crappie ate small live minnows and minijigs near the marina, and catfish slurped up dip bait, cut baits, and chicken liver in deeper coves around the lake.
