Fishing Report 7/22/2021

The Knee Deep Club’s next contest is for catfish, to be held on August 7 and 8. Catfish are starting to hit with the warmer temps.

Junior member Max Hughen had some nice bass this past week. His largemouth hit the scales at 4 lb. 1oz, along with a smallmouth weighing 3 lb. 10 oz. Richard Hilton also had a nice largemouth weighing 4 lb. 6 oz, casting some rubber worms along Nolans Point and Lou Marcucci had a smallmouth bass weighing 3 lb. 3 oz caught on herring.

Another Junior member River Graybill, while fishing with his mom and dad Aaron helped to land a 9 lb. 9 oz Hybrid Striped bass. Jim Welsh had an 8 lb. 3 oz Hybrid, also caught on herring. Other hybrids caught this week also were in the 7 - 8 pound range, being caught on herring or rapala jigs in deeper water.

Several pickerel up to 4 1/2 pounds and some walleye have managed to be caught also. Jerry Freeman while trolling worm harnesses managed a 7 lb 6 oz walleye for his efforts. Some nice crappies have also made their way to the scale.

Have a great week.
