Pickwick Lake Elevation 410
Water Temp. 52
BASS
Nothing much has changed over the past few weeks. This time of year is good for catching quality fish but you can not expect to catch a lot of fish. Keep it pretty simple and cover as much water as possible moving your bait slow. Carolina rigged Strike King Rage Craws work well right now. A Flat Shad crank bait in Chartreuse Crawfish color also works well. Just remember when cranking a crank bait to keep it slow. Rock bluffs and grassy areas are still holding fish.
Stripers
Stipers are through out the river and lake, it is just hard to fish for them right now. You can occasionally catch some on deep diving crank baits around the Dam. The good news is that stripers will bite better and better from this point on. Over the next few weeks I expect to see some of the biggest stripers I will see all year and numbers will increase after that.
For an online report you can go to TWRA website. You can access it through my website www.pickwickareaguide.com and you can also go there to access TVA’s website and by doing so it will take you straight to Pickwick lake.
