Fishing Report
Trout action has been very good with most rainbows averaging between 8 and 12 inches. There have been a few 18-inch rainbows taking baits as well. Olive Woolly Buggers and Snow Cones were the favorite fly patterns of the weekend. Despite rainy conditions, anglers found good action along the shore. Boaters are doing well while trolling with spinners along drop offs. The bass bite is starting to pick up.
