| Smallmouth Bass | 18 inch minimum length limit went into effect Jan. 1, 2016. This regulation change makes smallmouth bass regulations the same as those for largemouth bass. | ||
| Channel catfish | Fair | 0.5-5 lbs | Anglers chumming with soybeans and those running lines are catching some fish. |
| Wiper | Fair | 4-6 lbs | Fish have been chasing shad some evenings. Crankbaits cast into the melee have produced fish. |
