Tawakoni Fishing Report
- Oct 9, 2024
- GOOD. Water lightly stained; 82 degrees; 1.72 feet below pool. Lake Tawakoni continues to fish well as water temperatures continue to drop. The hybrid striper and white bass bite is good as fish become more active. Seems like fish are preferring slabs and in-line spinners over swimbaits. Best depth has been 3-15 feet. The trophy catfish bite is decent with big fish feeding. Drifting with medium sized cut bait in 2-22 feet has been the ticket. The eating sized channel and blue catfish bite is excellent on a variety of baits but punch bait or dip baits are working best in 10-20 feet. The crappie bite is turning on in 6-12 feet ok brush piles with minnows. Largemouth bass are good early on square bills near rip rap. The shallow water dock bite is about to turn on. When it does, throw small topwaters at daylight or smaller stick baits and hold on! Report by Captain Michael Littlejohn, Lake Tawakoni Guide Service.
