Clear and cold every morning.

Just barely freezing over night, and then warming to the mid 50,s by 1:00 pm...that’s warm.

 

Clarity is poor, about 6 feet near Rec 1.  and it gets worst as you go north.  3.5 feet clarity near Big Springs, and the Branch.

 

The Hamilton Branch power house is running brown water down from Walker Lake again.

 

East shore and south to Canyon Dam has the best clarity.

 

Surface temps  averaging 39 to 40 degrees at mid day.

 

Rec. 2, and the USFS ramps are locked up with thin ice, about 1/4 inch, which melts away every afternoon.

 

 

 

Rec. 1 looks good. I launched there yesterday. The lake has come up enough to back in larger trailers. However take a look before backing down.

 

Best Bet, Canyon Dam ramp, it still has a dock and is free of ice. In fact the whole east basin is ice free.

 

The west side has some thin ice that disappears by mid morning.

 

Condition are excellent for trolling and bait fishing. Fishing Pressure is light. With this high pressure system lingering over the north state, the water is warmer that it should be for mid January.

 

Its been so warm that Cedar trees are already releasing pollen.

Thinking about coming up? Here's a few good places to start.

Canyon Dam,: All that big water around the dam has the most bait fish holding.

 

Speedy Shiners, Needlefish, trolled fast at 3.0 to 3.5 mph.

 

Or slow it down and run soft plastic smelt patterns. Dodger crawler rigs is a  presentation.

 

Always add a brush of Pro-Cure Trophy Trout scent to your lure or suspended baits.

 

Lake Cove, to the Dorado: This is a excellent trolling area during winter, or jig in front of the big house.

 

Geritol Cove at Canyon Dam: Chartreuse Power bait off the bottom, Or Suspend Roe 3 cranks up off the bottom.

 

We got a chance of Rain up here the next few days. As always check the weather before making the trek up here.
