    Lake Badin

    I'm fishing Lake Badin for the first time this weekend. Looking to hear if the fishing is any good. Also, I would appreciate any tips you may have. Thanks

    I'm trying to be positive, the last 5 times I've been to badin lake, I've cought nothing. They are fish there, the same guys are winning the wildcat every Saturday. I'll try tillery, just my 2 cents

    I'm actually fishing Tillery. My friend thought it was Badin but it is Tillery. I will let you know how I do.

    If your going to Tillery tie on a shad rap and some sort of medium/shallow diving crank bait. That's what got it done for me this weekend. I'll let you figure out where and what color.

    Crawdad Shad Rap has taken a bunch of money over the years this time of year on Tillery. I would start where you put in at on 24/27 and especially fish the bridge good at the landing. With the warm spell coming, all the pockets should pay off. Good luck

    Fished part of Saturday and Sunday on tillery and blanked. It was tough to say the least. We did catch 10 catfish at the dam on cut bait and all ranged from 10-20lbs. Just thought I would let you know how it went. Thanks, to everyone who provided advise.
