Isabella held this week at 72 percent as it started to release as much water out as was coming in. The overall fishing here for multiple species remains very good. The DFWL stocked trout here last week and the bite has been phenomenal. Anglers fishing from shore have been scoring trout with minijigs, spinners, Keitechs and floating baits. Boaters continue to do extremely well trolling flicker shad or Tasmanian Devils. We had multiple reports of anglers scoring full stringers of crappie from Paradise Cove and along the South Fork. Anglers are finding large schools of Crappie around structure in 5 to 15-feet of water and have been coming on live shiners, small swimbaits, and Get Bent Baits in white, yellow, or chartreuse. The bass action has been real good lately. Bass are in shallow and have been fooled with reaction baits in the early and later hours of the day. The whiskerfish bite moved in the right direction this week and are chewing SSS Dip Bait, chicken liver and mackerel.
