Claytor is starting to fish pretty tuff. Most to the evening wildcat tournaments are only taking about 8 lbs to win. With very little offshore structures it’s hard to find them out on Claytor. I caught several keepers but no much over two lbs mostly on topwater and flipping a baby dnomb in the thickest cover I can find.

Claytor is fishing tuff. You can get some bites on topwater and pitching around heavy cover. Like most lakes the bite is best during morning and evening. Also if you are able to go at night it can be productive.
