Crappies galore. Monday caught 200+ and one striper. Wednesday caught 250+ and 4 stripers. That is the good part. Now the bad, not much size. Only had two that went 11 inches, most are in the 7 to 9 inch range. All were caught on jigs. Think WEEDS!

Sounds like they are hitting good Reporter. How big were the stripes?

They were all small. They hit on the crappie jigs.

What about any Bass?

What about any Bass?

Can't really give a report on bass but we did catch a couple while trolling for the crappies. Did talk to a couple guys who were bass fishing and they said they were catching several small fish. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

Talked to a CO one day last week and he said they were going to hold the water near where it is now so the farmers downstream could get in their fields. Boats are now getting under the bridge on 145 near 164. Hope that helps.
