Columbus Lake - 11/16/2009
COLUMBUS LAKE (TENN-TOM):
The crappie reports are good. Hit the old river runs right now for best results. The runs that are closed off on the upstream end will be the ones to target, as they will have the clearest water. Crappie are holding on stumps and laydowns in 4 to 8 ft of water that have deeper water nearby. Crappie jigs tipped with crappie niblets have been outproducing minnows. The bass reports are still fair. The river runs are producing a few quality fish, and the gravel pits are holding good numbers of keeper-size bass. The bass seem to be holding just off shoreline structure and are not really relating to wood or grass but are following the shad. Throw shallow running crankbaits or rattletraps where shad are active. Catfish reports are fair. Most folks are hitting the channel and the mouths of the old river runs with jugs and rod-n-reels with some success.
