Fishing has been good here as anglers report catching wipers, trout and black bass. Flows coming into the lake are very heavy running between 30 and 50% above normal. This is bringing lots of muddy water and debris into the south end of the lake. There are some logs and limbs floating in the water at the south end of the lake so anglers and boaters should take care. PowerBait seems to be working better than worms for trout. Fly rodders are having success with damsel fly nymphs fished along the edges of weed beds and in the backs of the coves. Of course the usual wooly buggers, seal buggers and leech patterns are all effective. Bass fishing is good as the water temperature has climbed into the low 70’s and most of the guard males have come off of the nests. Wipers are showing up in the creel with some nice fish being caught along the no wake buoy line at the south end of the lake using black over silver and black over white crank baits, fire tiger minnow imitations and chartreuse crystal buggers and Clouser minnows. Good places to fish for trout include the north end of Jet Ski Beach, the last cove before the dam on the northeast side, the main boat ramp cove and from a boat or float tube at the south end of the lake. Trout will start moving into deeper water with the warmer surface water temperatures. The lake was stocked with 15,000 rainbows this week bringing the total stocked this spring to 63,000 fish. Black bass must be released until July 1.
