Daily Fishing Report: Tonight we will have showers this evening becoming less numerous overnight, low around 45F with winds S at 5 to 10 mph…there will be a 60% chance of rain. Tomorrow will be cloudy, high around 60F with winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Tomorrow night will be cloudy with showers; low near 45F with winds NW at 5 to 10 mph…there will be a 50% chance of rain. Today’s fishing information will come from me first hand. I have been having my best success in front of Zipple Bay, north of the green marker in about 25 feet of water and on the northwest side of Pine Island in 16 feet of water. When you get the chance to get out that way you will want to be fishing with Pink/Purple/Gold & Pink/Gold (my personal favorite) jigs with frozen shiners. Another place where I’m having success is out about ¼ mile from Lighthouse Gap, out in the bigger water, in 20 to 22 feet, fishing with the same lures and bait. Lighthouse Gap is still producing in about 14 to 18 feet of water, but is slowing a bit. The fishing is still phenomenal. The biggest advice that I can give at this time is make sure you are anchored! I have been having success and so have others using that method. People last night were trying to troll all around me and they weren’t catching fish, even as I was bringing them in one right after another. People were getting so close to me that 2 people hooked their lures on my anchor line. Again, they weren’t catching fish and were 10 yards away from me! Make sure you’re on the bottom, because that’s where the fish are at! Good Luck and Happy Fishing!
