Keith Sebelius Reservoir Fishing Report -
Species | Rating | Size | Baits, Method, and Location |
---|---|---|---|
Crappie | Fair | 7 to 16 inches | Did have reports of crappies being caught around the public fishing dock using jigs and jigs tipped with minnows. Would also try fishing the maintained fish attractors. Would also recommend fishing up in the shallows as these fish come into spawn in the next couple of weeks. |
Saugeye/Walleye | Fair | 13 to 27 inches | Did have reports of fish being caught around concrete cove up by the marsh dike and along the dam using jigs tipped with night crawlers and/or minnows and trolling diving lures. An 18" minimum length limit is in effect. |
Wiper | Good | 10 to 28 inches | Would recommend fishing for them around the east side of Leota Cove, Monkey Island and Concrete cove using jigs and swim baits. |
Catfish | Fair | 10 to 30 inches | Did hear of some catfish being caught up in the shallows using shad, gizzards, shrimp, or stink bait on the bottom. |
Largemouth/Spotted Bass | Good | 10 to 20 inches | Would recommend fishing up in the coves or along the Dam and Breakwater using crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and plastics. |
