Water temps dropping into the 50s. Expect muddy shorelines with recent precipitation. Early mornings are still producing a few trout with small, flashy spinners or PowerBait combined with small pieces of worm. Bass and bluegill catch rates will begin to slow down with cooler weather. A variety of soft plastics and jigs with active presentations should work for bass. Bluegill are most likely to hit worms under a bobber. The boat ramp is not open this year due to low water levels.
