This week’s report will be short for me this week. With a family member passing away and having to go through all the procedures and everything, I never had any time for fishing myself. All I know is what a few friends that have filled me in on the bite is all I can really report on.

Headwaters is still the main producer of fish but with that said, it’s all about wild shiners being used. Setting yourself up in strategic locations where there is deep water next to the shallow water ledges is the key for many bites. Water temperatures are now in the mid 50’s and will remain this way until we have our warming trends and lesser fronts passing through. The Speckled Perch action is getting better and better with these colder conditions. Our coldest temperatures of the year are just a few days away so I’m sure all will be the same or really slow down once this front passes.
