It was another week filled with ups and downs, but we got enough reports of fishing at our lake. Striper and trout remain the top action, in fact other than a few bass being reported, these two fishes were the only action. Trout remained strong in the early morning on Powerbait and worms near Ramp #2 and some larger trout were also caught in the East End off of worms as well. Striper fishing is still somewhat hit and miss, especially from shore, but the action seems to be concentrated around Ramp#2 and the East End. While there are still reports of striper coming in near the dam and the inlet, there have been more reports from the two arms of the lake. Anchovies seem to be the best bait right now, but chicken liver remains a good option. Morning bait is still the best, but there have been several reports that the afternoon bite for the striper is improving. Not too much to report on the bass other than a few were caught off of worms and some plastics. Good Luck Fishing and Happy Tails.

Rate the action based over the past week:
Bass ==> Fair
Bluegill ==> Poor
Catfish ==> Poor
Striper ==> Good
Trout ==> Good

Trout was the main attraction this past week, and they bit well, mostly in the mornings, but action slowed a little by Sunday possibly due to the weather and the pressure fom fishermen. Most of the trout were caught near the Ramp #2 Area and once again, Powerbait was the top choice, but worms worked well also. Some larger trout still reported coming in back in the East End, but those numbers are down over what was reported...... Read More
