Gear for this water
The last plant has had time to disperse; work outward from the obvious spots.
For the panfish (bluegill stocked 1 time here in 2026, stillwater)
| Live bait | waxworms, crickets, and redworms out-fish everything for bluegill |
| Small tubes and grubs | 1 to 2 inch plastics for crappie around brush |
| Long telescoping pole | reach the pockets without spooking the school |
For the bass (largemouth bass stocked 1 time here in 2026, stillwater)
| Stick worms and soft plastics | weightless stick worms around cover; Texas rig in wood |
| Spinnerbaits and squarebills | cover water along banks and riprap |
| Finesse jigs | for the fish that have seen everything else |
