Warmer Water and Lower Lake Levels Are Making Trout Fishing a Little Tough

Warmer water and lower lake levels are making trout fishing a little tough. Best time to fish is early or late in the day. Bank fishing is somewhat limited by aquatic vegetation this time of year.

Bank anglers can find access at the 12th street or Pinehurst boat ramps and off Paradise Point Road. The lake can be very windy so anglers will want to check the weather before heading out. Fishing earlier in the day is usually better because the winds tend to pick up in the afternoon.
