Weather: Daytime highs this week will be in the high 50's and lows in the 20's and low 30's. Showers are possible on Sunday, looks like a bit windy and cloudy mid week but otherwise sunny. Feel free to call us for a real-time weather report. Here is a local site that is usually quite accurate www.mammothweather.com. Tactics/Bait: This week PowerBait, Night Crawlers are King and South Shore the most productive part of the lake. Other locations to try fishing are the creek, inlet, jetty, hangman's tree, near the outlet and the North Shore.
