Here, we’ll fly and lure fish getting mostly Browns up to 14”. With the flies it’s pretty much the same approach as Upper. When fishing lures we’re moving mostly upstream casting Panther Martins, Thomas Bouyants, and Rapalas. When using the Rapalas we remove the belly hooks for less harm to the fish.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
