Took a fishing trip with my wife to Pomme De Terre and it was a beautiful fall day with a light breeze. We caught a bunch of topwater fish on a Motion Fishing Buzzbait and she was throwing a Berkley Choppo 110 in black. We probably caught around 15 solid fish over 2lbs. We were finding the fish on flat banks with wind, most of the place we found wads of fish were in small coves or pockets that had shad present. We did most of our fishing down the Lindley Arm of the lake. We covered a lot of water and that’s what it takes to find fish in the fall. We would go 30 min without a bite then catch 5 in 5 minutes. Bottom baits is one thing I could not get to work, it seemed like the fish were looking up and feeding heavy. I left some lure suggestions off the Omnia site yall might try if you’re coming to the lake soon. 👍

The fishing has been good at Stockton with a lot of numbers. Size had been hit or miss for me. I’m finding my bigger fish on Topwater with either a Motion Fishing Soundchek buzzbait or a choppo. Seems like when you have wind they will bite it and if not forget it. Still a.l good dragging and deeper bite, Motion Fishing 1/2 and 3/4 oz football jig and a finesse jig is starting to play around main lake and secondary points. Lots of smallmouth shallow out in the main lake right now and the fishing should continue to get better if you are headed to Stockton in the near future. Most fish I was finding was around main lake going to half way back into the creeks.

Fish are still holding on main lake points. Some bait is starting to move back, but most are on main lake points.

Generally slow fishing on a hot day. Caught 7 Walleye on Jig and crawler combo. No schools at all. Each fish was on a different spot requiring me to move around. Fish glued to the bottom tough to see even with FFS. Tried reaction baits periodically but Jig & crawler ended up the success pattern on this day. One bonus Smallmouth and 1-14" bonus crappie

I launched off the warm water ramp in a 12’ jon boat at 10:30am. I fished most around that area. I immediately caught a 19” wiper and two small bass. Maybe 12”. I moved out into the arm which the discharge flows into and caught more bass off of some of the smaller secondary points, switching between shallow and medium diving crankbaits. The bite seemed to slow so I switched to a senko. I caught more all throughout the area and a little ways into the discharge. I had a little action on a texas rigged creature bait as well. My biggest fish was still only about 15”. These fish were on timber, rock, and gravel, and anywhere from the bank to 10’ of water. If shad were there, so were the fish. I did move out to the main lake and caught two off of a point. Moving deeper, I found large schools of shad. I wish I had a little more time to run a couple points and throw some deep presentations. Maybe I would have found some bigger fish.

Casted from the bank to a place where there is submerged vegetation. Steady retrieve. Also works doing the Alabama Shake retrieve. Pic looks a little crazy due to a nice sized bass I just caught that wrecked the trailer!
