The Lake is full to the brim with water levels right at the tree line and still cascading over the spillway. Good visibility to 17  ? feet, water temperatures crept up a little this report, 56 degrees at 20 feet and 58 at surface in the Marina.

Kokanee have moved a bit and are now concentrating in the River Mouth and along the southern end of the Lake between the spillway buoy line and the eastern shoreline.

Trout are still available in the River Arm from the Rock Wall to Indian Rock. Apex lures tipped with scented shoe peg corn, Uncle Larry's fire tiger, pinky and copper pops with corn, pink /white hoochies all behind a small Sep's dodger have all been working well. The Marina reports Trollers have had to drop down again a bit deeper this week, the fish are now in 20 to 50 foot depths.

The Marina reports bank anglers continue to do well. Planters continue to hold in the Recreation area long after the plant. Hot spots are the same-the EBMUD boathouse, Launch Ramp, TomSawyerIsland and Rainbow Point. Kastmasters continue to be super hot, silver/blue and silver/chartreuse  ? oz size. The sliding sinker set up is best with white power eggs, chartreuse garlic flavored Power Bait with sparkles and dark green Power Bait.
