Bridgeport Fishing Report
- Jul 24, 2024
- GOOD. Water normal stained; 87 degrees; 10.05 feet below pool. Lake Bridgeport is around 10 feet low, lightly stained with temps in the mid 80s. All ramps are open, although the ramp at the dam is still slippery. Crappie fishing continues to be good! The US Highway 380 bridge, deeper docks and offshore brush piles have been productive with minnows and jigs putting them in the boat. Hybrids and sand bass are cruising the main lake and moving fast! On main lake humps, ledges, ridges have been good with live bait and slabs catching fish. Some Sand Bass surface action is happening on cool mornings and warm afternoons. Largemouth bass have been good on topwaters early in the morning, and with flat billed crankbaits of finesse baits near lake points later in the day. Catfish are good on cut bait, drifting shallow flats early and late. Report by Keith Bunch, Lake Bridgeport Guide Service.
