We have a weekly fishing report from Charlie Taylor on the Lake Gaston Guide (www.LakeGastonGuide.com) with water temperature and lake level along with other lake information. Here's Charlie's advice for this week...
Riprap along roadways and bridges are good spots to fish, with topwater prop baits, plastic worms and grubs. The lake is cooling and the fish are moving into shallow water. Lipless rattling crankbaits, plastic grubs and spinnerbaits are all good lures. Use small willowleaf blades on spinnerbaits, as the shad in the lake are small. Topwater action is red hot in and around the uplake grassbeds.
Striper action is sporadic with a few being taken every now and then. Lots of stripers are breaking the surface, but not on a regular schedule.
