Choke Canyon Fishing Report
- Apr 17, 2024
- GOOD. Water stained; 73 degrees; 28.56 feet below pool. Bass are excellent on a swimbait or crankbait around shallow rock. As the sun rises, fish can be caught on main lake points with a Texas rig or Carolina rig. Report by Evan Coleman, Big Bassin Fishing. Bass are good in shallow water using shad or chartreuse colored running crankbaits, and watermelon or pumpkin colored soft plastics. Catfish are good on stink bait and shad in 10 feet of water. Crappie bite is fair to slow with fish transitioning to brush piles using minnows or grubs. Report by Scott Springer, Fish Choke Canyon Lake.
