TROUT SEASON IS HERE . . . The trout action has been very good over the Thanksgiving weekend. It has been a bit slower in the afternoon with the morning and late after noon bite seeing better action. Best baits have been rainbow power bait, night crawlers and the variety of lures with Thomas buoyant and small gold Kastmasters proving best. Pier #3 and Trout Cove areas have been seeing the best action in the deeper parts of the lake. Anglers are reporting in with some big trout over 5+ pounds with most fish averaging 1?? to 2 pounds. The next stock will be planted the week of November 26-30, with another 1200 pounds of rainbows.

Bass action was slow this week. Our local anglers reported catching some smaller bass in the 1 to 2-pound range on the small 3 to 4-inch plastic worms and even on Kastmaster lures. The bass are feeding on the smaller size bait fish. Most of the action has been in the Boat Dock Cove areas and next to Pier #1 and in Trout Cove. A fewer of the bigger bass are starting to show with a 6-pound bass caught on Saturday.

No catfish action has been reported to ranger station as of this weekend.
