Fishing this past week is a little slower than last week due to the high amounts of traffic we have been getting all week. Shore fishing of the striper hasn't been very good except for on e or two days. Most people are still catching striper around 40 to 80 feet of water. The regular anchovies and sardines are still working for the striper but you need to be out on the water to catch most of the fish. These fish which range from 2 to 6 pounds are being caught out by C- Point, Sharon's rest, Old SS, Kong Island, and the Fore Bay Buoy line. The largemouth bite is still doing very well due to the recent increase of shad we have seen all over the lake. The shad are not staying in one spot, they move around and bunching themselves up in different coves. So with that the largemouth are biting on the live shad, if you can net them, and shad imitations. There is still a good drop shot bite with a Robo worm and the night crawlers are still working. The pan fish bite has faded away and not very many people are even trying to catch them anymore. Catfish this past week have done exceptionally well, most of them being caught on night crawlers and the occasional power bait dough balls. The fishing at the lower lagoon has been very good for the past few weeks. Lots of nice sized largemouth still being caught on plastics and night crawlers during the day time and in the early morning grey light. At night it seems to be more of a top water an creature bait bite.
