The lake level is 559.54 and pretty steady if they keep running one generator. If they quit it rises again. They cannot seem to run both generators. We received 5-inches of rain in March and the average is 4. The normal high for today is 67 and we will not get anywhere near that. The surface temperature is still in the mid 50's and does not want to rise. It has been the same for weeks. The lake is trying to clear a bit but is still very stained green with just a couple of feet of visibility. The brown water is mostly gone but there is still some in the Bennetts area. The fish want to get active despite the cool water. Temperate bass are biting better and several are coming in. Trolling an umbrella is working the best with jigging spoons next. There is an after dark bite for stripers simulating a spawn in their normal places on a stick bait. Walleye can be caught before dark on shadowy banks on soft plastics. Some crappie are on brush in 25-ft. of water shallow and some are still in open water on shad. You can catch some good ones if you know where to go. Bass fishing is getting better and better and they are full of eggs as are the crappie. They just need a little heat to hit the beds. We need some warm nights in the 60's but are not getting any of those. Things should get a lot better as the top water bite begins in earnest. That is usually April 15th and gets better as the middle of May approaches. Fishing in general is pretty good but not great. I wish more big stripers in the 25+ range were showing up. People are keeping a lot of stripers in the 6-10 lb. range thinking they are big and they are not. Things are just a little slow coming around but will get there. I am catching some good fish everyday but it is not easy.
