Conditions : ABERDEEN LAKE: Bass fishing is fair, but all the rains have been keeping the water on the dingy side. Dark colored Texas or Carolina-rigged plastics and jigs are good presentations.

The crappie reports are fair to good as well. The crappie anglers are targeting a lot of the same backwaters that the bass anglers are. Most anglers are using jigs with some sort of chartreuse in them, but experiment with your color selection. However, if you find some cleaner water, minnows may also catch a few fish. Most anglers are targeting some sort of shallow, woody cover to catch their fish.

Target the mouths of the old river runs at the edge of any current. Deep stumps and log jams are ideal spots for catfish to lay up. Tight lining cut shad is the best technique. The bites may come slowly, but some quality fish can be had.

About: - At 4100-acres, Aberdeen Lake is one of the premier May destinations for bass fishermen in the state of Mississippi. The lake has sloughs off the old river runs and they are shallow and filled with cover. After the spawn, the bass at Aberdeen don't move out of the bedding areas, because they don't have to. Some of the best sloughs are Vine's Branch, Buzzard Wing and Moccasin Creek. The best old river run is Becker's. Location: Monroe County, Hwy 45 East of Aberdeen.
