Fish'N is good here as well. Water conditions are great with a nice lake level and lots of open water to fish. You must locate clean bottom that is free of pond weed and grass.
13-15 feet is best right now, look at the drop-off by Rainbow Pt. and work the weed lines towards Buckeye Bay. The east shoreline near the marina and around the inlet to the Walker are also hot spots. You will have to work deeper water in these areas so streamers may be a better choice if you are tubing. Use a full sinking line with Loebergs and punk perch. The chironomids are also prevalent at the Bridge and using the same technique as you would at Crowley will get you into fish here as well. Look for Callibaetis to show up in numbers soon. These are large still water mayflies that are a large part of the trout's diet and are best imitated with flashback PT's, Assassin bird's nest patterns, and our Killa-baetis pattern. They can be bought at the marina tackle store on the lake. These can be fished further off the bottom as the nymphs are swimmers and do not have a pupal stage.Fish'N is good here as well.
