Richland Chambers Fishing Report
- Dec 31, 2025
- GOOD. Water slightly stained; 62 degrees; 2.22 feet below pool. The cold front that hit should cool the water temperature down into the 50s. The lake seems about a month behind with the warm weather we have had. Catfish are the most consistent fish biting. Dragging cut bait on flats or fishing trees that birds roost in are ideal areas. Black bass can still be caught shallow around dock poles and rocks. The base of retaining walls is a good place to locate the rocks. Use a square bill crankbait to fish these areas. Hybrids are still somewhat scattered and chasing bait. White bass are becoming more consistent in larger schools in 30-35 feet of water. Report by Terry Hawkins Guide Service.
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.
