Conditions : Lake Wylie: •Catfish: Very good. Captain Rodger Taylor reports that good numbers of blue catfish in the 4-10 pound range are being taken drifting cut mullet in 22-45 feet in and near the river channel when the water is being pulled. Recent rains have caused a new inflow of fresh water from the South Fork and Catawba River. Upper, mid and lower lake current is also present at times when the water is being pulled. Bigger catfish in the 25 plus pound range can be taken anchoring in the current along the river channel in the northern sections of Lake Wylie – gizzard shad heads make a great bait. Larger fish require a bit more patience, but it can pay off with a trophy cat. White perch and crappie: Slow. Captain Rodger Taylor reports that the white perch are very hard to locate right now. Try fishing minnows 18-24 feet deep around offshore structure.

•Largemouth Bass: Slow. Guide Matt Arey reports that the bite is tough down the lake where conditions are cold and muddy. Try looking for bait schools on your graph and fishing near red clay banks with jerkbaits, jigs or square billed crankbaits. In the South Fork the water is warmer because of the warm water discharge and fishing may be better. "Power fishing" around timber with crankbaits, spinnerbaits and jigs should catch fish.

About: - Lake Wylie, a 12,455-acre impoundment on the Catawba River in North and South Carolina. Lake Wylie is an excellent bream lake and is loaded with these fish. While the average size may not be as large as on some lakes that we'll discuss, the sheer numbers of good-sized fish present more than compensate.
