With some of the first reports of fish being caught off the shore, we are nearing the true “Fly Season” at the lake, but we’re not there just yet. For anyone heading out this week, if you’re fishing from the shore, look for the beaches with the deepest drop offs and fish balanced leeches or balanced baitfish.

If you plan on getting out in a boat or float tube, use a slip indicator and focus on 30-60 feet of water. Using electronics to locate the bait and the trout will undoubtably be the best way to find them with any sort of consistency. We expect the shore bite to start up un just a couple more weeks, at which point it will be game on with the standard methods of fishing this lake!

If you would like to go fishing with us please check out our website Trout Creek Outfitters.com or call (530) 563-5119.
