Crappie are biting Hare’s Ear nymphs and night crawlers near the dam. Midges and PowerBait are catching fish throughout the day with the best trout action taking place early and late in the day. The bass spawn was good, and anglers have been catching bass ranging from 4 to 12 inches. The water is very low making it difficult to launch even a light trailer. After the wet weather this past week, please use caution along shoreline.
