Fish Report for 6-24-2012
Easy limits were reported this week at South Lake
6-24-2012
Parchers Resort Gang
The week started out especially warm and beautiful and anglers fishing South Lake Monday through Thursday found plenty of very cooperative trout to keep them occupied. Easy limits were reported by many, especially boaters fishing the middle of the dam, Rock Slide or west shore. Good numbers were found at the back inlets as well but the bite was a little more sporadic back there with the back lake still a bit on the shallow side.
The bait and wait folks did excellent on inflated crawlers 36" above a sliding sinker or split shot, as well as Powerbait rigged the same. Some action on crawlers fished under a bobber for folks fishing either corner of dam was reported as well.
Jig tossers are still hitting great numbers of fish, especially on grasshopper, pink/blue flake, and orange/pink combo jigs. Tie the jigs directly to your 2lb or 4lb line (no swivel) and retrieve very slowly for best results. When the wind picks up, jigs with a small piece of crawler fished 6' under a bobber in tight in shore also produced a lot of nice stringers.
Folks who are tossing Thomas Bouyants and Kastmasters are also having some great luck, especially within a day or two of DFG stockings.
And then the wind came and pretty much blew out the weekend. Bummer.
The water level at South Lake has stabilized at a level allowing boats in the 12 to 14ft range to launch without much difficulty. Larger boats have been out but getting them in and out has been challenging with the limited amount ramp under water.
