Boogieman, the best spots on the lake seem to always be from the old pier above the boat landing all the way down to the dam. The very best place being between the boat landing and the old pier that is falling in. This pier is located back toward the town of Clayton. It is a very small pier. I use a 12' jigging crappie pole, a natural cork and 4 lb camo line with a cricket or a small crayfish, right up close to the bank in the shade.

Boogieman, the best spots on the lake seem to always be from the old pier above the boat landing all the way down to the dam. The very best place being between the boat landing and the old pier that is falling in. This pier is located back toward the town of Clayton. It is a very small pier. I use a 12' jigging crappie pole, a natural cork and 4 lb camo line with a cricket or a small crayfish, right up close to the bank in the shade. Of course when they are bedding they are always a few in any of the shallow water. Biggest thing is to be stealthy in your approach. BE QUIET. The fish in this lake are spooky. I once caught some big gills at the pipe tower at the dam fishing about 10 ft deep, but only once. A guy that use to work for me use to take a 2/0 worm hook and put about 10 red worms on it and bottom fish. He caught alot of catfish, but he caught some huge bluegills. Good luck. Let me know next time you are coming up.

Earl, I'm down in Enterprise. I've fished at Barbour County Lake a few times. I caught a few nice ones there. Do you have any experience there and maybe some tips for it.

I have a local pond here that I fish, ( I am in Southeast Alabama), that the brim I catch are always very dull looking. It has a big ditch running in to it and the water has become permantly stained over the years. It looks like mud soup, but you can always catch a mess of gills. These fish are also all mixed up. Red bellies, blue gills, longears, and warmouth. No color but good to eat.

Sorry, I ate em. When I go back to that pond, (named Ech Lake by the way) I'll take a camera.
