The water clarity is fairly clear in most of the lake and stained in some of the creek arms. The water temperature continues to cool, with the average being 58-63 degrees. The dam area has been buoyed off due to current that is created when releasing water. Trout: Slow. The recent rainfall and cooling temperatures will help ignite the trout bite. The water temperature continues to drop and the lake should turnover any time soon. Once this happens, the trout will move to shallow water where they are much easier to locate and catch. This typically happens sometime around Thanksgiving each year. Bass: Good. The bite continues to be good for most anglers. It is not as crazy as it was a couple weeks ago, but there are still plenty of fish biting and it is a good time to catch some big ones. The fish are keying on schools of shad. Once you have located the bait the bass will be nearby. Glory Hole Sports (209) 736-4333
