Castle Rock Cut is OPEN!!!!!!

June 1 through June 9:
Scale 1-10 (10 being the very best)

Striper:
On bait the Lower Lake =7
Trolling - Lake wide on rapalas =5
On Fly Rod over bait  =5
Smallmouth - Largemouth =5
Walleye  -  10-15 ft.  deep jig bouncing and trolling shallow divers =5
Crappie  - Lake wide =1

Stripers are slurping little shad on some days better than others.  Small spoons (trout side) crappie jigs on ultra lite tackle 1/8 oz in white chartreuse or a combo.  Accuracy and presentation are everything.  You must lead the leader of the schools.  This is a tremendous challenge for the flyrodder.  Flies that are producing right now are the pink crazy charlies.  In another month a shad imitation in black and white 2" max.

Monsoons are prevalent in July so take the advantage of early morning cloud cover for extendedtop water action. 

For Fly Fishing:  Mini clausers - olive and Funny Bunnies good over chum, crazy charlies pink

Conventional:     Mini Sassy Shads over schools working well

Trolling:             Count Down Rapalas in shad imitation

Fishing Forecast for July & August:  Due to higher water levels with runoff fishing is a bit unpredictable.  We will update weekly for what is happening.  Typically August is a good month with the water being finished coming in and the fish can get into a pattern once the water level has leveled off.
