Boca continues to offer steady trout fishing for both boat and shore anglers. Surface temps are in the low 60s°F, and fish are moving deeper as the day warms. Kokanee have mostly tapered off, but trout are still hitting near the dam on worms, salmon eggs, PowerBait, and small spoons. Trollers are scoring with sierra spoons or dodgers tipped with a worm. The lake remains full, providing easy access and good fishing opportunities all around.
