Fox Lake Quick Fishing Report – July 5th, 2020

CONDITIONS

  • Water Color: Very Green water.  Algae bloom.
  • Water Visibility: 6″ visibility
  • Water Temp: 85 to 87 degree surface temps
  • Weather: Hot!  Mid 90’s Humid
  • Misc: Day after 4th of July. LOTS of boat traffic
  • The Fish: Bass were VERY skittish and tight to cover.  Likely a result of pressure, tons of boat traffic, and *fireworks all night long.  Pike were non-existent due to high temps.

*Due to Covid-19 all municipality fireworks were cancelled. This resulted in everyone putting on their own fireworks show.  Most cities and lakes had people setting off fireworks all night long.
