April 23rd Main Lake Water Temp. Upper 50s

The Lake elevation is 3781.30 Storage is 157,500 acre ft.

The Main Lake is stained.

Fishing was good over the past week. Most species are moved up now and the shallow bite is working the best overall.

White Bass are still very good both trolling and casting near the bank. Swim Baits and Spinners are both working well for casting and Berkley Flicker Shad is still the best choice for trolling. The Canadian arm from Horseshoe Bend to Romero Canyon was working well over the weekend.

Walleye are shallow and hitting Swim Baits, Jerk Baits and Berkley Gulp Minnows in 6 to 12 feet of water, mostly on main lake points.

Catfish were slow this week.

Crappie are slow but they are starting to move toward shallower water. Live Minnows are the best bet right now.

Bass were very good over the weekend. They are starting to stage up and move toward the spawning areas. Main lake points are still good and secondary points and even the backs of some of the coves on the North side of the lakes are starting to hold some Bass. Swim Baits, Crankbaits, and Jerk Baits were still working well over th weekend. Wacky Rigged Stick Baits are starting to produce as well.
