STAFF REPORTS
Saturday, August 17: Water stained; 83 degrees; 43.26 feet below pool. Bass fishing is good, with sand bass being caught all over the lake—gray or pink jig-heads with red eyes paired with pearl blue or pearl white grubs are producing well. White jerkbaits, rattling shad, and minnows have also been effective for both largemouth and smallmouth.
