Where the fish are today
74% Good chance for smallmouth bass today · 1–28 ft deep
- Water 67°F on top, a bit cool for them, so they feed in the warmest water they can find.
- Best water today is 1–28 ft deep, mostly on channel edges.
- The lake is layered: warm water down to about 40 ft, cold below.
- Little oxygen below about 60 ft, so fish stay above it.
Best zone: channel edge, about 7% of them, 8–28 ft deep (the fish on the map above).
