Cooper Fishing Report
- Jul 24, 2024
- GOOD. Water stained; 83 degrees: 2.00 feet below pool. Catfish are excellent in a post-spawn phase hanging out in 2-13 feet of water on timber. Hybrids and sand bass are good schooling on main lake humps and points, and in the river feeding under balls of shad. Fish can be caught on spoons or slabs. Crappie are good on main lake brush piles, or in 4-18 feet of water on timber. Fish are not schooled up, so hit several trees for a mess of crappie. Minnows are out fishing jigs. Report by River Bottom Boys.
