Buena Vista Lakes Report

Chad Burton and Chris Borden
Trout anglers had a field day last week, but things have slowed a bit since then. Dough baits, minijigs, spinners, and spoons all scored bites from the monster rainbows. Flicker shad style baits worked well for the anglers trolling from boats and kayaks. Crappie were the best bet last week with several anglers reporting limit style fishing. Get Bent Baits Minijigs, small swimbaits, and small live minnows all filled stringers. Bass fishing was fair with green pumpkin Senkos, Texas rigs, and deep diving crankbaits landing a few fish. Catfish anglers used dip bait, chicken liver, and cut baits to fool smaller grade kitties.
