The lake has a lot of algae bloom. If you can get out past the weeds, you will catch some fish. But remember that there are no shade trees, and it gets hot up there this time of year.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
