Fishing Report
- Jul 9, 2025
- GOOD. Water normal stain; 90 degrees; 2.64 feet above pool. Bass are good on crankbaits in 10-15 feet of water with Carolina rigs or white flukes. Football jigs are still drawing bigger bites as the sun gets higher in the sky. The bite is slow midday, but early morning and late evening have been the best for numbers. Crappie are holding in isolated brush piles and laydowns in 12-14 feet of water with slip cork minnows, or ⅛ ounce jigs pink head with white chartreuse minnow will work if using live scope. Channel catfish are holding around the same cover as the crappie just closer to the bottom. Report by Brian Vickery Fishing.
