Idaho Fish Report

Trout fishing has slowed with the warmer temperatures, so like other area reservoirs, fish early and fish deep. The usual PowerBait or worms should work for bait anglers and small spinners are the ticket for spin fishermen. Fly rodders are having luck with dark colored buggers, leeches and nymphs with peacock herl. Much of the algae mats are gone and fishing is tapering off a bit as fish move to the center of the lake where the water is deeper. Expect the same techniques and presentations that work at South Fork, to work here as well. Fish for trout more towards the center of the lake where the water is a bit deeper as the water warms up. Anglers are being asked to return any bass or blue gill they catch to help re-build those populations in the lake.
