Water levels here are recovering from seasonal irrigation lows and surface temperatures were around 60 degrees this week. Fishing has been fair to good for eight to 12 inch rainbow trout and improving each week. The occasional brown trout is being caught. For bait anglers nightcrawlers and rainbow PowerBait are the best bet. Small spinners, spoons and Kastmasters for those throwing hardware should work. Black or olive wooly buggers and black, olive or wine-colored leech patterns are working for trout. Dry fly patterns are still producing a few fish. Brown trout are staging into the creek above the reservoir for the fall spawn and fishing near where the creek empties into the lake could be good for browns. Fishing the creek should also be productive for the brown trout.
