Next Stock: April 5, 2007 ??? 1200 pounds of Trout
Water Temperature: 60??
Water Level: Very low and rising very slowly

The trout were biting best in the area between Piers 3 and 4 of the lake. The bite has been fantastic. Limits are not hard to come by. The Buoy Line has been a slow area on the lake for trout. Trout Cove produced a few fish. Those using Power Worms and rainbow Power Bait are scoring best. This is a skip week. The lake will next be stocking 1200 pounds of trout on Thursday, April 5. The recent drop in water level is pushing the trout into the center of the lake.

The bass bite was so-so this week. The bass fishing pressure was up this week. The weather was fantastic and will likely be perfect this week. The males have started to nest up, but few females have shown up. The lake is the lowest it has ever been. The females have headed back out to deeper water and are in a holding mode until the water level becomes more consistent.

We have noticed of late that some of the anglers are snagging bait fish. THIS IS ILLEGAL!!! If you wish to use the live bait from this lake, you are only allowed to dip net them. Those observed snagging bait fish will be ejected from the lake for 72 hours and may have there gear confiscated. The practice of snagging bait fish is a violation of the Fish and Game Code.
