Fishing forecast (September through November): When water temperatures cool down, trout begin to head to shallower water in the reservoir while warmwater fish, such as largemouth bass and yellow perch, head deeper. 

Rainbow trout: For shore anglers, try fishing trout dough bait or a worm off the bottom in shallow water. Boat anglers can do well trolling crankbaits, or a pop gear and a worm or a squid-and-dodger combination, at depths from just under the surface down to 40 feet. 

Largemouth bass: The primary forage of this species are young bluegill and yellow perch. Try casting spinner baits, tube jigs, twist tail grubs and crankbaits perpendicular to shore.

 Bluegill and sunfish: Try fishing a worm under a bobber on a size 8 or size 10 hook. Bluegill and other sunfish can often be found near submerged brush or aquatic vegetation. 

Yellow perch: For shore anglers, fish a worm either on the bottom or under a bobber along sandy shorelines. For boat anglers, try looking for schools in water between 6 and 30 feet deep. When you find a school of fish, try vertical jigging with a jig or a spoon tipped with worm.
