herrington lake Fishing Report 2025

fished herrington lake on the 21st. patchy rain all day made it unpredictable, but got a couple of nice bass. used topwater lures early in the mornin' which was fun to see 'em hit! had a blast, even if it was a bit wet.

went back to herrington on the 20th and wow, it rained hard! wind was crazy too but i managed to catch a nice 6 lb catfish. used cut bait and was surprised at how active they were despite the weather. felt like a real champ!

hit up the lake on may 18th, was overcast but not bad. fished all day with a friend and we landed a bunch of bluegill. they were really hittin’ on crickets! great day just chillin’ and reeling in those little guys.

the 14th was decent, still some rain but it cleared up a bit in the afternoon. got lucky and snagged a few trout, around 2-3 lbs each. i was using a bobber and nightcrawlers, which seemed to be the magic combo that day! felt great to finally get a few after the rain.

fished herrington on the 11th. had some patchy rain and temp was kinda chilly. caught a couple of smaller bass, used a plastic worm. they weren’t biting like i hoped but still nice to be out there, even with the clouds rollin' in.
