Water levels are starting to drop, which means there is lots of shoreline fishing available; trout and largemouth bass are being caught from shore with worms; as ...more water levels drop some walleye may be moving to the dam. Trolling the buoy line or along the dam works well for walleye; there were several large walleye (21-plus inches) pulled out over the fourth of July weekend as well as some very nice wiper. Water temp is approximately 73 degrees. The algae is starting to bloom, which gives the water a green hue -- it is perfectly natural. A state parks pass is required ($7 Daily Pass or $70 Annual Pass) in addition to your valid fishing license (now available at our Nature Center).
