Well with it raining all week again not much has changed with the water clarity or in the fishing department. The lake is still brown, but luckily last week the wind was on our side and help us push much of the debris covering the dam area to and out of the spillway. Using bait that has an odor to it is still recommended, since the fish are relying more on smell than vision. We got some reports from fisherman that the spillway has been good fishing. Fish are still shallow and relatively close to shore, so remember not to go too deep or they will just pass it up. We still have our tagged trout derby going on through March. Don't forget to check us out on Facebook for more catches and details!
