Howard Prairie is 47 percent full. The boat ramp at the marina and the marina are now open. Klum boat ramp is also open as well as the improvised gravel boat ramp at the dam. As of this week, anglers continue to report catching 14- to 18-inch trout but a little less consistently now that summer has set in. Bank anglers wading out from the marina were catching trout last weekend so there are options available for boat and bank anglers still available. Still fishing with PowerBait early in the morning worked well for one angler recently.
Techniques include using a green wedding ring spiked with a nightcrawler piece behind a small egg sinker still fishing and trolling. PowerBait, night crawlers and spinners have also been productive.
