I focused on areas about 30-40 feet from the bank. There’s good vegetation and cover around the bank areas and makes for hot spots for fish.

CatfishTechniqueSpoonsSeasonWinterStructureOpen Water/BasinWasn’t really fishing for catfish but this one was hungry obviously. Was just throwing out a chrome spoon with a little feather over the hooks. Works for a lot of different fish. About 30-40 feet from the bank in little pockets.

In the fall, chase the bait. Watch for shad and follow their movements - probably into the shallow creeks. Start with a popper/plopper in the morning and as the day progresses, start working a little deeper with a swim bait or spinner bait.

Threw out about 20 foot from the bank in 8-12 feet of water. The big ones were hitting the neon cranks all morning.

These crappie really liked the current the wind was causing. They were gathered around docks in large numbers.
