Water temps remain in the low 50’s. Fishing should be good for carryover trout. Rainbow trout averaging 9″ were stocked 3/25/26. PowerBait and inflated worms fished off the bottom will attract trout. Fly anglers should try woolly buggers, leeches and midges. Fish in the shallows and near the edges of muddy water. Bass fishing will still be slow due to cool water temperatures. Take advantage of springtime shoreline fishing before weed growth impedes access.
