The water temperature is 77 degrees. Even with the recent rain the water levels haven't changed any. The water clarity is around 1-2 feet of visability.
White seems to be the key color lately. It doesnt seem to matter what kind of lure it is, white in-line spinners, white grubs, white plastics. Anything white is working right now for Small Mouth Bass.
Medium to Large Golden Roaches are also working well for Catfish and Smallies. Last week a 35 pound Flathead was caught on a Medium Golden Roach dressed on a jig head. So Good Luck on Your Fishing Outing!
George, I'm glad to hear that you made it out there to fish the Fox. I have been so busy lately that my fishing time has been severely limited this year. Hopefully I'll be able to spend more time on the water when my kids are back in school. The only problem then is the days are shorter.
