Bass:

Not much has changed over the past week.  Fish continue their post-spawn feed as they slowly pull from the backs of coves and creeks.  A few fish were seen on beds, however, much of the spawn is over.  Bass are chasing faster moving baits such as crankbaits and swimbaits.  Pick your favorite ones and fish 4-10' deep over points, humps and ledges.  Bandits and Rapala Shad Raps are doing well.  Don't ignore the soft plastics.  The fish will stop for a shakey head or drop shot worm or grub.  Good quality fish are being caught daily.
 
Striper:
 
They continue to make the slow track from upper to mid-lake.  The majority of the fish being caught are from the 208 bridge up to Stubbs and Holiday Bridges. Fish shallow in low light, deeper in bright light.  Most fish will stay in the upper water column 5-15', however, fish have been found as deep as 25' in some areas.  Sassy shad, sea shad, Capt Mack spoons, as well as live bait are producing many nice fish.  Guides are bringing in limits of fish on a daily basis now.
 
Crappie:
 
Their spawn is over too, but bluegill/sunfish spawn is beginning.  Live worms and very small poppers will do the trick around boat docks and bulk heads.  Crappie are reschooling and moving to deeper structure and bridges.  Minnow and 2" grubs will produce some nice slabs.
 
Water temps upper 70 to low 80’s
