Clinton lake fishing report

Each Friday The Kansan will provide a fishing report for area lakes. This week we look at Clinton Reservoir but in future issues other, smaller lakes will be included. Feel free to send along reports (or even photos) of your own from around Lawrence to smontemayor@kansan.com.

The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks reports that at Clinton Reservoir:

WIPER are slow with anglers catching some while actually fishing for catfish using liver. Size: 2-4.5 pounds.

CRAPPIE are fair with some being caught over brushpiles on minnows or jigs. Size: 0.5-1 pounds.

CHANNEL CATFISH are good using worms, liver, stinkbait and spoons over baited areas. Size: 1-4 pounds.
