Fish and Useful Baits at DuBois Reservoir
Fish reported from DuBois Reservoir include black crappie, bluegill, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.
Bass
When largemouth bass hold tight to cover on DuBois Reservoir, a compact jig or weedless worm is more useful than repeated open-water casts.

Crappie anglers on DuBois Reservoir should count the jig down beside brush until the holding depth becomes clear. A small float, light line and a piece of worm are enough for DuBois Reservoir bluegill around cover. Perch anglers on DuBois Reservoir should stay mobile until several bites come from the same depth.
Catfish, Bullheads and Carp
After dark, try a nightcrawler or cut bait near a channel turn when fishing DuBois Reservoir for channel catfish.
