Stocking: The last catfish stocking of the season is this week! Another 1,000 pounds of catfish will be stocked bringing our total stock up to 8,500 pounds stocked this season. Night fishing will continue through the month of October. Don’t forget your lantern!

Trout Opener: The dates for Trout Opener are November 17th - 19th. Wright’s Rainbows will stock 2,500 pounds for the opener. Our trout come from a family owned commercial aquaculturist in Idaho. Ten percent of every stocking is over 3 pounds. We will stock 19,000 pounds of trout this season.

What’s the Catch? We heard the catfish bite was good off of the t-dock this weekend and true to form the cats were also in the shallows around the lake after dark. Mackerel and garlic shrimp were the baits of choice. The Redears were out during the day and schooling in Half Moon and Eagle Coves. Meal worms and bits of nightcrawler were reeling them in. No reports of bass this weekend.

Conditions: The water temperature is just below 78 degrees. Be aware of shallow structure if you’re in a boat especially around the points. The sun is rising at 6:54 a.m. and setting at 6:13 p.m.
