The lake level is 573.79 and is dropping very slowly with increased generation. The lake is pretty clear and you can see about 10-feet at the thermocline at 20-feet. Many fish are around that level in the buckbrush including walleye, bass, crappie, bluegill. Stripers have moved out deeper and are near the bottom in about 60-feet. There are many baitfish in the brush with bass fry about 1-inch long being very numerous and the spawned shad are also growing. Spoons are the best for the deeper water and shakey head plastic worms for the rest. There is still a topwater bite most mornings early for both bass and red meat fish. Some crappie, blugill and walleye are under docks but most of the dock walleye are small. Fishing is pretty good but you have to get out there early. Some bass are biting during the day on rattletraps on cloudy days. The surface temperature is about 80. Fishing overall is fair and the lake condition is good.
