Permit and Boat Rentals are sold at the Ranger Station. We do not sell fishing licenses, bait, or tackle, so anglers must acquire these essentials items elsewhere prior to their visit. All day motor boats are discounted to $20 for seniors (60+) on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and for active military every Saturday.
Due to the threat of Quagga mussels, there is a ban on private water craft and equipment. Restricted equipment includes; private boats, canoes, kayaks, float tubes, trolling motors, fish finders, anchors, and other equipment that contacts the water.
The bass are in shallow water in various stages of the spawn and are being caught on crankbaits, crawdads, and dark colored plastics.
Catfish can be found throughout the lake, but the bite is best at the buoy lines. They like cut mackerel or chicken liver, as well as dough-bait. Stop by the ranger station for a dough-bait recipe that works well on both catfish and carp.
Double digit crappie stringers are being reported from several boaters this week. They are being caught using shiners and a variety of mini-jigs, white ones in particular. They are biting near Crappie Rock and Bass Point.
Each month Whopper Contest winners in four categories are awarded a free fishing and boating permit. For information on the contest or fishing conditions, please contact the Ranger Station at (760) 839-4346.
