Houston County Fishing Report
- Mar 27, 2024
- GOOD. Water clear; 63 degrees; 0.43 feet above pool. Fishing has slowed some but should improve heading into the weekend. The second wave of spawning largemouth bass and crappie should begin soon. Shad spawn started this past week, and should continue for the next month. White bass that did not go into creeks or the river are spawning on the main lake right now on points and in smaller coves. Largemouth bass are spawning on beds. Largemouth bass are good in 1-7 feet of water with wacky worms, weightless Texas rigs, yum dingers or swim jigs. Crappie are in 10 feet or less using minnows on standing timber, brush, or deep docks. Report by Colan Gonzales, CG’s Just Fishing Guide Service.
