The water temperature in Tenmile Lakes was in the lower 70s this past weekend. There are lots of small largemouth bass hanging around the shallow water with an occasional bigger fish. Many of the larger fish have moved to the deeper water along points, drop offs, and weedlines. Topwater lures are catching in the early mornings, late evening and in shaded areas during mid-day. Other lures that are working right now to catch bass are crankbaits, drop shots, and jigs.
Trout fishing in rivers and streams will opened on May 22. Fishing is restricted to artificial flies and lures in streams above tidewater from May 22 – Aug. 31. Trout fishing in the lakes is open year-round.
