Stillhouse Hollow
GOOD. Water slightly stained; 77 degrees; 12.61 feet below pool.
The upper third of the reservoir is muddy upstream of the long bridge and off-color from the long bridge to Union Grove.
Fishing for largemouth bass in the lower two-thirds of the reservoir continues to be excellent. Focus on the outer edge of hydrilla growing in 12-17 feet of water, especially those patches enhanced by adjacent topographical features like drains, breaklines, creek bends.
Soft plastics in dark, natural hues are producing well.
Smaller, more numerous bass are being taken on Senko-like presentations over top of shallower, emerging hydrilla.
