Fishing Report 10/13/10

[Mike Worley]

Walleye are biting crawler rigs on bottom bouncers at 35'-40' on main lake & creek channel points & flats. All species of Bass & Walleye are following the Shad and are biting spoons, grubs & crank baits. Crappie are moving shallow biting grubs along drop offs. Spotted & Largemouth bass are biting Split shotted nightcrawlers in 40'-60'. When the fish are blowing up on the shad try casting a grub or crankbait to them, when they go down a white 1oz jigging spoon will catch a mixed bag of fish. Keep an eye on your graph you can find fish working the Shad just about anywhere with little or no surface activity many times 50' down over much deeper water. Drop a 1oz jigging spoon down to them. Some schools of Shad are so large you can smell them when they are near by ....................................Mike Worley (ar.walleyes@yahoo.com)
