The surface water temperatures mid-week were 47 degrees in the morning and 52 late on sunny afternoons.  Bass fishing has been slow to fair for numbers but good for size.  Trout fishing appears to slowed this week, but weather may have been the factor.  Those fly fishermen that were catching fish report that they have been catching nice fish with a variety fly patterns including wooly buggers, leech patterns, red copper Johns, hares ears and chironomids (midge larva) patterns. Ice cream cones, red butt buzzers, red and silver zebra midges, red brassies and frostbite chironomids should all be working.   Anglers are also having some success with spinners, worms and PowerBait fished from shore.  Rainbow trout-colored spinners continue to be effective.  Blade baits, crankbaits and soft plastics have caught a few nice bass though bass fishing has dropped off significantly. When fishing for bass this time of year, get deeper and fish more slowly. South Fork was stocked with more than 20,000 trout two weeks ago.
