Kanopolis Reservoir Fishing Report - Updated: 06/01/2020
| Species | Rating | Size | Baits, Method, and Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Channel Catfish | Good | 16 - 21" | Channel Cats are being caught shallow on windblown shorelines and flats with cutbait, worms. Try the flats on the SW part of the reservoir. |
| Crappie | Good | 10 to 14 inches | The crappie bite has slowed but plenty are still being found. There are many reports of 8-13" crappie being caught on light jigs and minnows in 5 - 10 feet depths off the dam, in brush piles, and near the tower. Some are being caught in shallow areas from the bank. Try 1/8 or 1/16 oz. jigs on light line with small plastic trailers or live minnows. |
| Trout | No reports. The trout season is over until next year. | ||
| Saugeye | Fair | 14 - 22" | Fair. The Saugeye bite has improved slightly and more keeper-sized fish are being caught. Anglers are catching a few Saugeye along the dam and wind-blown points, but some are starting to be caught on flats adjacent to the river channel. Try soft, paddle-tail or twister-tail soft plastics with a slow presentation. Use bright colors (e.g. chartreuse, pink, etc.). Night time is best, but evening and early morning are also good. Many, sub-legal fish shorter than 14 inches are being caught. Remember, if they're less than 18 inches, release them. |
| White Bass | Good | All sizes - up to 17 inches | Good. Folks are catching a lot of whites in the reservoir on humps and structure near the river channel. Try areas from 8-14 feet in depth along the river channel southwest of buzzard bay. Chartreuse grubs, castmasters, and small jigs work well. |
| Wiper | Poor | All sizes | Poor. |
| General Comment | |||
| Elevation: 3.8 feet above conservation pool and falling. Lots of floating logs and debris. Water Temperature: 70 - 72 degrees Current lake elevation and water temperature is available on the location page linked to this fishing report. It is updated daily by the Corps of Engineers. | |||
