Fishing Report

[Phil Lilley]

Night crawlers are king... at least off our dock this weekend. And they've done well up at Short Creek injecting them with air and floating them off the bottom.

Jig and float using olive micro jigs under a float 4-5 feet also very good in the trophy area and down to Cooper Creek.

Mr. John Johnson from Kingfisher, OK is here fishing today and said he's doing well in the trophy area using grey thinskin scuds under an indicator fishing them on the bottom or close to the bottom. He's fishing from the Narrow upstream.

Below the dam, fishing has been good but not on real big trout. Reports are they are catching 11-14 inch rainbows very well with an occasional 15-17 inch rainbow, mainly on scuds around the outlets or where there's good current (rebar, rocking chair, below the boat ramp).

Night fishing has been spotty... it's been real good or real bad. Most are using dark colors in sculpins, wooly buggers or leaches. Also using stick baits on or close to the surface.
