Lincoln State Park: Bass - Fishing has been fair. Bass can be caught suspended. Bass continue to bite with a slow retrieve on highly active spinner baits and soft plastics. Choose a crankbait or spinnerbait in chartreuse or red with a large blade to catch their eye, focus fishing effort near deep woody structure.Crappie - Fishing has been slow. Focus fishing effort near the dam with small white crank baits or live minnows. Jigging works wonderfully near deep structure, dont be shy to use a spray-on fish attractant for artificial lures, a large part of the crappies predation instinct is scent driven.
Bream - Fishing has been good. Focus fishing effort near vegetation or shallow structure with small white beetle spins or fish on bottom with redworms or night crawlers. A slow retrieve is best.
Cat - Fishing has been fair. Focus fishing effort on bottom in the coves with stink baits or livers soaked in koolaid
