​​​​​​The water level is low, the surface water temperatures are in the low to mid 50’s and the vegetation is receding. However, shore fishing is still difficult.  The bass bite is very slow with the cooler temperatures.  Trout fishing is good from a float tube or small boat.  A Worm fished under a bobber seem to be the presentation of choice for trout, though small spinners should also work for those who want to throw some hardware. Fly rodders should be using chironomids, PT nymphs, hare’s ears, small black or wine buggers and leeches.
