Fishing is only going to get better as temperatures drop this fall. Slowly trolling with flies or lures above the vegetation is a surefire bet to catch fish from now until it's iced over. Most fish are in the 8- to 12-inch range, but there are plenty of fish 16-20 inches. This is by far one of the best fisheries in Lake County in the fall.
The boat ramp near the dam is the best way to launch here. If bank fishing, try areas with less vegetation and keep your offering off the bottom. Casting flies and lures can be productive as long as you are near weed beds.
