[#000000]The water level continues to drop. Trout fishing is fair with most of the fish being caught in early morning and late evening. Close to the dam is still the best bet with some large browns showing up. Most are being caught trolling worms behind flashers. Fly fisherman should try a large midge pattern (black body, white antron wings and tail) on a number 10 streamer hook. Many of the bass nests were left high and dry, so those guard males are back into normal patterns. Use plastic gear or crank baits and fish the rocky shores and points. Both boaters and shore anglers are catching most of the trout near the spillway and along the dam in about 20 feet of water. Worms and power bait are working well. [/#000000][#ff0000]Starting Tuesday, July 1st, one bass, 15 inches or longer may be kept. [/#ff0000]. [/#ff0000][/size]
