The lake has yet to really switch on as we’ve seen a few good days here and there, but nothing consistent. With the funky start to the winter, the standard beaches and methods to fish them for this time of year have kind of gone out the window. If you’re heading out here, it may be a good time to explore some of the lesser-known beaches, or maybe just try a beach that you may not think of fishing in December. Who knows, it may be the ticket to a great day. 

We are hopeful that this weeklong storm may mix things up for the better, so if there was a time to go, this looks like a good week to try. On some days we are hearing great reports on the strip bite, and on others, midges have been the ticket, but still, most days you have a good chance at some action using leeches under an indo. Trial and error will be the best policy on a slow start to the season at a fishery that would be considered by most to be normally hard to pin down.


If you would like to go fishing with us please check out our website Trout Creek Outfitters.com or call (530) 563-5119.
