With nighttime temperatures dropping into the 30s, the bluegill and bass bites are slow. The best chance for catching bluegill and bass is when the afternoon sun warms up the ponds. The last catfish plant of the season is slated for this week for Floyd Lamb, Sunset, Lorenzi, and Veterans’ Memorial Park ponds. Hafen Park pond in Mesquite is under repair, so it did not receive catfish during the previous plant. Rainbow trout plants will begin when water temperatures are cool enough at all ponds, possibly by Thanksgiving weekend.
