Fishing Report

This warm weather sure has the crappie on Pinchot good and hungry. Yesterday many of the crappie anglers stopped by our shop reporting good catches of crappie over 12 inches. One fellow had 15 crappie over 12 inches. They seem to be slowing down on the red/white shad darts. They were using Gitzit Little Tough Guys crappie jigs, fathead minnows and some white and pink/white twister tails.

Bass anglers on the lake are a little frustrated with how slow the bass are on Pinchot. Most bass guys are only catching 2 or 3 largemouths each trip with maybe one of those around 15 inches, the rest are smaller fish. They are throwing Rat-L-Traps, spinnerbaits and jerkbaits. Water temp in the shallow areas is up to 63 degrees as of yesterday afternoon.
