Water temperatures are in the low to mid 70s. Due to warm temperatures, trout fishing has slowed. Anglers fishing in the early mornings are catching rainbow, brown and tiger trout. Fish are hitting PowerBait, spinners, nightcrawlers, and wetflies behind a bubble.

Bass have been hitting on a variety of soft plastics and spinning baits. Be sure to have a variety of colors ready to maximize success

There is a limited Bluegill fishery at Comins Lake, and anglers are encouraged to release Bluegill to better establish their population.

Please note that NDOW has placed radio tags in several Northern Pike. Any pike over 24 inches in length that have transmitters can be removed from the lake. These pike will have an orange floy tag near their dorsal fin and a small antenna (~ 7 inches long) coming from their stomach.  Please return these fish to the water for research purposes.
