FISH REPORT AUGUST 5, 2021
The bite this week was as hot as the weather. It has been exciting that so many sizeable trout 2 ½ lbs. to 9 ¼ lbs. have come out of Convict this week.
The catch has been good all around the lake. Inflated night crawlers, power bait in various colors, and garlic power bait have been the best choices for our anglers.
Trolling down deep, 6 to 7 colors, with the Red and Gold Thomas Buoyant, Rainbow Needlefish, and a Gold Kastmaster have pulled out many lunkers. Just remember that the trout are down deep.
We are pleased to let you know that we are once again stocking the lake with trophy size trout this week. More fun for one and all!
The weather this coming week looks really good. No rain in the forecast. Sunny warm days are ahead. High temps will be in the low 80’s and night time temps will be right around 50 degrees. Sounds like perfect conditions for all your outdoor activities.
