Fishing has been slow as expected, but as temperatures drops fishing will get better in September. Try fishing early in the morning when temps are the lowest. Trolling with flies or lures is by far the best option. Most fish are in the 8- to 12-inch range, but there are plenty of fish 16-20 inches.

The boat ramp near the dam is the best way to launch here. If bank fishing, try areas with less vegetation and keep your offering off the bottom.
