If you use baits like nightcrawlers, redworms, crickets, and grasshoppers that catch every species in the lake, your overall catch rate will go up. You can still get bites in the same spots floating, but the bites are slower and your catch rate will go way down.Īll standard trout and panfish baits work here.
Although I have caught adult browns at 24" on a redworm, and sunfish down to 72" so be ready for anything and don't be afraid to experiment.ĭuring the middle of the day, the trout seem to move to deeper water and lures work much better. Fish can be found from 18 inches down to max depth depending on spot, species, and time of day.Īs a general rule, panfish are 18-30", bass are 24-60", and trout are 36-72". The depth for each spot can vary quite a bit. If your bobber is more than 5 ft from the shore or a protruding rock or weed bed, chances are the water is too deep there for float fishing. Focus on the areas along the shoreline and around the edges of weed beds. I find the pegs from the bridge all the way around to the waterfall are the most productive for bait fishing. Tea bagging the same hole over and over will net fewer fish, and prevent you from learning the water. Once you've worked all the available shoreline from a certain peg, move to the next peg and start over. Once you've caught 1-2 fish in one little nook, cast somewhere else.
Some of these little crannies hold every species in the lake. Nearly every nook and cranny along the shoreline holds at least one species of fish during those hours. I usually float fish exclusively from 5-7 am and 7-9 pm, and often get 50 lbs or more of fish that way.
