Ft. Phantom Hill Fishing Report
- Feb 1, 2023
- GOOD. Water stained; 44-47 degrees; 6.97 feet below pool. Fish can be found in all depths this time of year. An early morning drift in deep water can produce an abundance of 10-35 pound catfish. Concentrate on flats with some sort of nearby cover or channel ledge. Cold days with a high sun are great times to fish the shallow back waters throughout the winter months. Big baits will be key so use 8-10 inch gizzard shad cut into two pieces. Report by local angler Alex Tatum.
Zebra Mussel Alert To prevent the spread of zebra mussels, the law requires draining of water from boats and onboard receptacles when leaving or approaching public fresh waters. Get details.
