Clear Creek Reservoir boat ramp is open Thursday through Monday, 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Here is an update from Jerry Hornbuckle: "This past week saw a marked increase ...more in the number of people fishing at the reservoir, both from shore and from boats, and somewhat larger numbers of fish caught. However, fewer of the large rainbow trout brooders were landed. From shore, trout tended to prefer PowerBait and worms, although casting a fly with a bubble produced good numbers for some fishermen. In general, the daily limit of four fish per person was usually caught in two hours or less. A few "catch and release shore" fishermen did land much larger numbers of fish in a three hour period using PowerBait, small spoons or spinner lures. From boats, the best results were from trolling just off the south shore, across the lake from the boat ramp parking lot. Worms trolled beneath cowbells consistently worked well all over the lake. Lures notably successful trolled were Rooster Tails, Tasmanian Devils, and small Rapalas, although several other lures of various types worked for other boaters. Small flies trolled deep produced the largest numbers caught this past week; one woman from Colorado Springs reported a "hundred fish day." Others flyfishing with various dry flies matched to the daily hatches also did well around the shore, best again off the south shore. While no one reported landing any Tiger Muskies, two kokanee were reported caught, one small at about 12 inches, the other approximately 16 inches. Just as hoped for in the previous week’s fishing report, fishing did improve this last week." Report courtesy of www.kansasangler.com and Zeiner’s Bait and Tackle.
