LAKE WEISS IS DOWN 2.18 FEET, VERY STAINED AND 44 DEGREES BY MARK COLLINS GUIDE SERVICE

Bass fishing is fair and a few largemouth are starting to be caught on secondary points on Rat L Traps and shallow running crank baits. Our spots are still very active. The upper part of Little River and the Chattooga River is loaded with spots and they will stay there thru the winter, any cover on deeper rocky banks is sure to be holding some Spots. They can be caught on a Texas rigged 4 inch Zoom dead ringer or a 5 inch Senko worm in pumpkinseed or watermelon seed or June bug colors and a drop shot rig is also catching a lot of spotted bass.

Striper fishing is fair and they have started their migration up the Chattooga River and the Coosa River, cut shad on the bottom on a Carolina rig is a great way to catch these pre spawn fish.

Crappie fishing is Fair and some good stringers of fish are starting to be caught trolling. Little Spring Creek is producing some good trolling action on 1/24th ounce Jiffy Jigs in colors JJ11, JJ12, JJ13, JJ15, JJ17, JJ24, Church House Cove is also producing some crappie trolling these same jig colors in a 1/16 ounce. The Riverside area is also producing some fish trolling.
