The water level in the lake is about 6 feet in the middle and very fishable. With the afternoon storms we've been getting the lake should continue to improve.

 Tim Morris out of Inverness snagged this baby on Saturday afternoon; May 30th - Nice fish Tim!!

Special kudos to Tom and his wife Jennifer who do so much for the kids of Sumter County through their significant assistance in making the Tracy's Point Annual Youth Fishing Tournament possible as well as their generosity during the Christmas season each year donating toys to under priviledged children.

This was the first tournament for this association comprised of 13 churches throughout Sumter County.  We were proud to serve as host to this event and hope that it will be one of many christian events to be held here at Tracy's Point.

Tracy's Point welcomes the Big Sun Bass Club out of Ocala for their tournament scheduled for Saturday, June 20, 2009 - Best of luck!

Please send photos of fish caught out of Tracy's Point to thelinds@tracyspoint.com and I'll be sure to get them posted on our site.

 

Current fishing report:

Bass fishing this past week has been fantastic.  Captain Neal Bedford of Basswaters Bait and Tackle caught 60 bass yesterday.  The biggest bass was 8 lbs 2 ozs and he caught 4 more over 5 lbs.  Neal said that top water Rapalas were hot prior to sunrise and the Zoom June Bug Trick worms were the ticket afterwards.

I spoke with several other bass anglers who caught some nice fish over the past few days - Almost everyone I spoke with are fishing the North end of the lake.

The Blue Gill and Shellcrackers are still biting well.  Several folks have limited out this week, however you've got to find the beds.  Just to the right of Tracy's Point is still a good bet - if you don't get on em there head to the other side of the lake directly accross from Tracy's Point.
