Ämp Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 with water levels going down steadily 2 inches a day your best bet is to find paths that bigger fish follow to move in and out of cover . fish are not holding to cover all day like they were a month ago. 1- 15 feet has been the most productive , try crank baits ,softplastics and topwater lures for your best chance to catch bass.. look for crappie to be suspended over brush piles in closer to 25 ft of water.muskie are sitting on channel swings and the starts of long flats. walleye are very slow but can be taken on inline spinners worked on the edges of channel flats. white bass are still in summer feeding mode and are easy to find with the boils that occur late in the day and early in the morning.. they never move shallow from 15 ft so if you follow the boils dont run em into the bank. 27th we had our most luck on spinnerbaits and soft plastics. with the sun out for most of the morning the topwater bite disappeared early but still turn out to be good fishing most the day inc this 5lbs LM .

et84 Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Great Fish!! I tried for some crappie last week, with no luck. Maybe next time. "Sometimes it seems like such a hard life, but there's good times around the bend. The rollercoaster's gotta roll to the bottom if ya wanna climb to the top again."
Guest csfishinfool Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I was out today, and got on the water at 3 pm. The wind picked up a bit and anything with the wind blowing on it was good. The grass with wind was the biggest producer with probably 12-15 fish. The biggest was about five lbs, and caught on a spinner bait. Also caught five or six of them on a spro frog. Lost one other fish on a crankbait that i didnt see but was a big one. All of my fish came out of less than five foot.
