THE IL FISHING REPORT

FISHING REPORTS ARE RECENT-(MAY)

Saugeye - The saugeye fishing is greatly improving with a lot of 14" to 18" fish being caught. Try throwing vibee's and jigs or tightlining with minnows. The fish seem to be around moundwood mostly but the south bank also seems to be producing.

Crappie - The crappie fishing has picked up some some. Most of the crappie are moving back around the docks and coves, so try fishing boat docks or brush piles and fish 3' to 4' deep. Different jigs, minnows and waxworms are catching most of the crappie.

Bluegill - The bluegill fishing doesn't get any better than it is right now. Try to find spawning areas and use small rubber baits or Icejigs tipped with redworms, wax worms or spikes.

Catfish - The catfishing is picking up down. Tightline fishing seems to be the best, but there's also cats being caught on bobbers. Catfish seem to be about anywhere. They are hitting shrimp, liver, nightcrawlers, shad and prepared bait in a bag. Most cats are caught while tighlining.

Bass - The bass are hitting great. Try fishing the cleanest water you can find and around pads and docks with a spinnerbait or power worm.
