The lake is full, surface water temperatures have climbed into the mid 60’s with a few weeds and anglers are catching trout up to16 inches.  Expect the weeds to start growing and shore access will soon be limited. With the warmer water expect bass to be active.  Worms seem to be the presentation of choice for trout, though small spinners should also work for those who want to throw some hardware.  Fly rodders should be using chironomids, PT nymphs, hare’s ears, small black or olive buggers and leeches. The lake was stocked with approximately 3,000 trout the last week of April.
