Fishing this past week has been great all over the lake and stripers are biting by the marina and back by the buoy line on sardines and blood worms. Stripers have also been caught around mouth Elizabeth Cyn and Dry Gulch in roughly 40 to 80 feet of water.

The largemouth are still going after nightcrawlers and plastics, the deeper you go the bigger they get. Hawks nest is still producing a lot of decent sized largies with a few smallmouth in the mix. Drop shoting Robo Worms is still the best technique for the largies at both the upper and lower lakes, anglers are still catching some 7 to 10 pound largemouth at night near campsite B and C.

Catfish have still been going after the sardines at the buoy line and back in Necktie Cyn. Trout have also been hanging around in Hawks nest, Anglers were pulling up trout from 45 to 50 feet off power bait and night crawlers.
