Limits on top of limits of trout and bass were caught all week. Another 40001b rainbow trout plant took place on the 1st and contained many 6+ pounders. Young angler Daniel Hittner of Los Alamos was able to bring in the biggest trout since the derby weighing in at 8.5Ibs on a bass lure in between Sweetwater Bay and the dam line. Hot lures this week included rooster tails, kastmasters, mice tails, and super dupers even made a strong comeback along with virtually every scent of powerbait.
