went to gladewater lake yesterday and did nothing, i used range cubes and shrimp, dk bait and nothing, the water was 91.5.fished in eight feet of water. might go to river this weekend

I beleve it is too hot to fish during daytime, maybe you could try some night fishn atleast it will be more tolerable weather

stevenr ... I hear you my friend ... I too have been skunked catfishing recently.

nehntr ... do the fish simply not feed during this heat and wait for night/cooler times?

I've been skunked at Gladewater for a while now. I used to have great success night fishing cats on the north end of the lake in 6-10' feet. I've tried everything I can think of and keep coming up empty handed. I live about 2 mi from the lake so I hate to go elsewhere. Any tips for Gladewater lately?

Most cats are considered nocturnal, they start searching for food after dusk.

The fish will bite during the day and during the heat. We spent this past weekend at Cedar Creek for my brother's bachelor party. Saturday morning we fished some main lake humps and boated quite a few blues and channels along with some hybrids, sandies and even a crappie. That afternoon me and another guy took off for some shallow water fishing. We put 14 channel cats up to 3 lbs. on ice in less than two hours on Secret 7. The boat was sitting in less than 2' of water and the water temp was 93.6 degrees. This was between 3:00 and 5:00 and what is typically considered the hottest part of the day. If you can stand the heat and locate fish you shouldn't have any problem catching them right now. But remember, you won't catch them if you don't find them first.

I agree with Bobby.....Plenty of cats to catch shallow right now!
