Hello from Lake Jennings! The bass are still biting well due to the water level dropping though the sudden drop in pressure Friday night and early Saturday morning did slow them a bit until the end of the day. Senko's, Ika's and Bass Assassins continue to do well and still no top water action. The fish are sticking to their pattern of moving deeper until evening. Catfish continue to be caught along the buoy line and a few right off shore though you still need to fish deep.

Best Trout Spots: None

Best Trout Lures/Bait: None

Best Catfish Spots: The dam buoy line.

Best Catfish Bait: Mackerel. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: Dawn and dusk tight on the bank.

Best Bass Lures/Bait: Ikas, Senkos, #13 Rapalas & Pop R's.

Notables: No fish over 3 lbs. reported.

Prognosis: As we move along in the season the largemouths are still the best target hitting natural colors, greens and browns in crawdad imitations or stick baits. Open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This week it is 6:15 AM until 7:15 PM. Prime times for both cats and bass are 6:15 AM to 9 AM and 5 to 7:15 PM. The first trout plant will be October 22nd.

Water Temperature: 77-79 degrees.

Current Schedule: We will be open Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6:15 a.m. ??? 7:15 p.m.
