The lake is full and the fishing has been good to fair for small rainbows. Trollers have done well with Rapalas on the road side and the south end. But don't go too far south or you will find the willow forest that's under the water, "Snag City". Shore anglers have done fair with Powerbait or inflated nightcrawlers.

With the presence of the summer bugs mixed with the waning of the more spring/winter bugs, one can fish a variety of methods and imitations right now and have a good shot at finding some fish.
