The water level is in good shape, however weeds are impacting fishing access for shoreline anglers. Better fishing opportunity will be from float tube, kayak, etc. at this time. Through the summer, trout up to 18″ have been caught. Try small Panther Martins and Mepps, worms or your favorite PowerBait. Midge and leech patterns are working well for fly rodders. Bass and catfish catch rates are good.
