There have been a few ice fishermen near the
dam. The thickness is reported to be about five
inches. Using nightcrawlers they caught about 25 fish.
They also tried Powerbait, but it was slow.

The winter
is almost on us. The bite continues to be good!!
The lake has a thin layer of ice forming in
most areas from our snow from the last few days. It is
still NOT thick enough for ice fishing! Stop by the store and say hello, and let us know how you do.

Fall bite
continues to be good!!
Bank fishing has been good just past the
buoys by the dam spin casting with Kraftmaster’s.
Powerbait in rainbow was also producing results.
Yesterday at Mallard Cove the bite was slow.
Fly fishing at Camp 5 was very good yesterday in float tubes using
woolly buggers.
North end of the lake at
Fairview
and Mosquito Slough has ½’ to 1” of ice in the coves.
As of Tuesday December 1st, access all the way around
the lake is still doable, however, it is very muddy and in the
shade snow packed and icy.
If you are bringing your boat, the ramp at Honker Cove is snow
packed and icy, also PLEASE do not use the North side (right side
of the boat ramp when you are facing it)…too shallow.
Stop by the store and say hello, and let us know how you do.
