Look for more clear skies, temps in the high 80's low 90's. There may some overcast and possible thunder showers.
The water level remains the same as last report and is about three or four feet below spill and holding. Visibility remains good, presently good to 15 feet plus at the Marina. Water temperatures are constant and are currently 68 degrees at the 20 foot mark and 73 at surface at the Marina.
Trollers continue to do well in the River Arm around Twin Coves, Deer Island, Indian Head Rock and Columbia Gulch. The Kokanee are at the same depths as last report, try 75 to 110 feet. Anglers continue to catch Kokanee up the River Arm, some have begun to show some early stage signs of turning, and they are losing some scales and are a not quite as firm. Trout fishing has also been better upstream but not quite as deep, look for them at 25 to 50 feet. The hot lures continue to be Thomas buoyant lures in gold/red, rainbow and fire tiger behind a sling blade or dodger. Hot lures for Kokanee are hoochies, Uncle Larry's glow pink fire tiger, copper popsicles and desert fire lures along with Apex lures in all colors some tipped with scented corn or a piece of crawler behind a medium silver/blue or watermelon Sep's or Lance's dodger.
Fishing has been quiet in the Recreation Area this week, the Woodpile has been the best location for trout and some catfish according to the reports from the Marina. White Power bait continues to be hot ticket for Trout.
Bass fishing continues to good in and around the coves near the River inlet. The Marina is now stocking Yamamoto slim sinkos and Robo worms in all the popular colors, pair these with a drop shot weight and hold on!
Recent reports confirm that the late afternoon and early evening at the Mud Hole and Tom Sawyer Bridge have been very productive for nice cats in the 2 to 5 pound range using chicken livers and crawlers.
Pardee Lake Recreation has planted a total of 33,000 lbs. of Rainbow Trout in combination with the Department of Fish and Game plants of 5,000 for a grand total of 38,000 lbs.
