Fishing
report for Kerr/Buggs Island Lake
June 29, 2009
Striper: Fishing is excellent from
Ivy Hill to the Dam. Some fishermen are catching fish trolling different
presentations including bucktails, sutton spoons and deep running baits
such as Stretch Mann's and Cotton Cordell Deep Red Fin's. Some fishermen
are vertical jigging spoons in 30 to 40 foot. Some are being caught
early morning with big Pop'R's. Most of the fishermen are limiting
out.
Catfish: Good blues are scattered
out from Clarksville all the way up both the Staunton and Dan rivers.
Fish can be caught on live shad and bream, and also on cut shad and
crappie. The bigger flatheads are still mostly in the rivers but should
be beginning to work back towards the lake. Live bream is still the
bait of choice but you can also use stink bait, chicken livers, nightcrawlers
etc..
Crappie: Crappie fishing has been
excellent. Fish are being caught on deep brush and bridge pilings 15
to 25 feet. Some are being caught with white bucktails, plastic baits
and live minnows.
Bass: Bass are being found 10 to 25
feet deep carolina rigging small plastics such as the Zoom mag finesse.
Crankbaits are also working well at certain times of day. Fish can
be caught early morning and late evenings with topwater baits such
as spooks, pop'rs and sammy's.
