This lake is ice free, though there is skim ice in the coves on these still cold mornings. Anglers have caught fish using PowerBait or worms and fly fishermen have had luck with disco balls, chironomids and hares ears. Jet Ski Beach and Coyote cove is where most anglers are fishing, but most coves should hold some fish. Getting them to take your presentation is another matter. The trick is to not fish to far from shore as the fish are moving into the shallower warmer water and to use very small presentations. The county road is severely pot holed and rough.
