Fishing has been very good since the last trout plant with many anglers landing their personal bests. As always, we are anxious for the next plant, and we will be sure to update you as soon as we hear something. Recently, anglers landed monster sized trout using garlic scented Power Bait in varying colors, Get Bent minijigs, tolled spinners, and mini crankbaits. Bass fell for weightless Senkos, drop shot reapers, and spinnerbaits. Most of the bass action took place in front of the cattails, but anglers also landed largemouth using crankbaits along the rip-rap in Lake Evans. Catfish ate cut anchovies, dip bait, and garlic scented nightcrawle
