WEISS LAKE IS AT 2 feet 8 inches BELOW FULL POOL AND STAINED AND 49-53 DEGREE'S
Fishing was great this past week with a lot of Crappie caught.
Bass fishing is Good and a lot of Bass are starting to be caught shallow on rip rap rocks and deeper rocky banks. some Bass are still deep on their winter pattern, on the creek and river channel ledges, Look for the Bass to move shallow over the next few weeks as the weather warms.
Crappie fishing is Great and they are being caught in the main Coosa River, the Chattooga River and Little Spring Creek. A lot of Crappie are suspended 15-20 feet deep in the main Coosa River channel
Long line trolling with Jiffy Jigs in 1/16 oz and 1/24 oz in colors JJ08, JJ13,JJ17, JJ24, and Marks, Ice Blue color, is the way to catch these winter fish, Spider rigging live minnows 14-18 feet deep over the main river channel, is producing some great fish also. They can also be caught on a float and fly technique, live minnows under a slip float is also producing some fish.
Striper fishing Poor and most of the fish have left the main lake making their spring run up the Coosa river, I have not had any reports on the upper Coosa river
Catfish are biting good in the deeper flats of the lake on cut bait.
