Lake Weiss Fishing Report
DATE: 10-4-00
LAKE LEVEL: 559.4
NORMAL LEVEL: 564.0
SURFACE TEMP: 76*F
WATER CLARITY: Good
CRAPPIE: Crappie fishing is tough all over. A few people have had some
good catches but they are few and far between. Not a normal fall for us
at all. However, forecast is for a cold front to move through in the next
couple of days and is also supposed to bring with it some much needed
rain. This cooler weather and rain could rapidly change things for the
better.
BASS: Bass fishing is still fair. They continue to be shallow. Carolina
rig and small Rat'l traps still doing good.
CATFISH: Catfishing remains good at night on trot lines or jugs using
cut bait.
BREAM: Bream are starting to collect around the docks in large
numbers. Quantity's are great but quality is not. Weiss does not have
large bream.
STRIPE: Stripe fishing has turned back on and is doing great. Large
numbers are being caught again. Still being caught on live shad on the
old channel edges, humps and drops.
As always do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any help whether
you need a guide or not. Always glad to lend a hand.
**AGAIN** PLEASE use caution on Weiss as the water level remains
low. Watch for the channel markers and use caution when you leave the
channel. Take it easy and you will have no problems.
As usual if I can be of any help don't hesitate to "holler". But, before
you "holler", please look at the whole site as we have a lot of info
that may be of interest to you. www.lakeweissguideservice.com
