9-14-2018

Water levels are too low to launch a boat.  Bait casters should try using Berkley Power Eggs, Berkely Garlic Scented Power Bait, Corn Scented Power Bait, Salmon Egg Scent Red Power Bait, Mice Tails, and try floating a nightcrawler using either a marshmallow, Power Egg, or inflate the worm.  Fish these all on a sliding sinker rig.  Fly casters should try sparrow nymphs, stone fly nymphs, wooly buggers, and bead head nymphs.  Lure fishermen should try Kastmasters, Panther Martin Spinners.  Trollers should try using needlefish, wedding rings, apex lures, phoebe, and cripplure behind your favorite dodger or trolling blades tipped with a nightcrawler.
