Anglers reported good to excellent trout action on both lakes this week.
Trout were hitting Power Bait ( especially orange, garlic and spring green), night crawlers, jigs and lures. Anglers also used lots of attractants- garlic, anise and roe. Hot spots included the eastern logged shore and western shore from the pump house to the bridge of lake 3 as well as the northern and eastern shores of lake 2.
