The lake level has been going down and the Douglas County camp staff has been trying to keep up with raising and lowering the docks at the bait ramp. The NDOW planted the lake this week with 5000 lbs of catchable rainbow trout. Shore anglers have been using powerbait or inflated nightcrawlers. Trollers have had best action with small flashers and a half of a nightcrawler. Some trollers have been using spinners or Thomas Bouyants.  reminder to use a bearing snap swivel if you troll lures or you will end up with line twist.


Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
