Fish Reports:

Bluegill:

Can be found in the 5 to 10 ft. range, including some nice big ones. They are going for nightcrawlers and crickets.
Trout: It is toward the end of the trout season. However, we are still seeing some big "holdovers" out there. Yellow, rainbow PowerBait and red, white, and blue top water lures have all been good.
Catfish: Just not interested yet, the water is too cold.
Stripers: Some small ones, in the 1 to 2 lb. range have been showing some activity at the 40 ft. water column on nightcrawlers.
Largemouth Bass: Good action on both Males and Females here and there. Some on beds, some already spawned. Most males are in the 2 to 4 lb. range. Mini jigs, crankbait, small swim bait drop shots (purple, orange crushand Aaron's magic) have all worked to some extent.
