Tippah County Lake

Have I fished there?

Yes. Many times for bass and occasionally for crappie, bream and catfish. 

What we’ve caught

Bream, catfish, largemouth bass

My notes

I’ve caught bass in the summer bank fishing piers and creek channels off live minnows and soft plastics Texas rigged. I’ve also caught bass night fishing the boat ramp during the summer. Winter I have catfished the campgrounds and boat ramps, but water levels are way down making access challenging.
