This reservoir was stocked on April 8 with 1,600 legal trout and 200 trophy trout. The boat ramp is accessible and trolling with lures and flies for these fish is a great method. Of course, fishing with PowerBait and casting lure catch plenty of fish as well.
Hybrid bass catches have slowed down as the fish tend to spread out as water temperatures warm. Bait fishing is the proven method for catching hybrid bass but fly-fishing and casting Rapalas are also effective when these fish are feeding. Rapalas that imitate tui chub and rainbow trout, favorite food sources for hybrid bass, are good bets for catching these fish. On sunny days you will need to fish deeper than cloudy days.
