Very little change here as fishing continues to be fair for trout and fair to good bass.. The usual PowerBait and worms as well as small spinners are working for trout.  Fly rodders should be using chironomids, hares ears, PT nymphs, copper Johns, and black or olive wooly buggers.  For bass dark soft plastic baits with sparkles are working as are minnow type imitations.  The lake is full and with the warmer weather weeds are growing and shore fishing is difficult. Best bet is with a float tube or small cartopper boat.  Bass fishing is pretty good  along the weed edges using soft plastic grubs hooked weedless.
