Lake Level:

Tuesday the Lake was at 768, a good mix of water and beach. Looks like this is going to be the new "normal" for early summer. The new engineer is doing a good job of following the weather!

Even with all the rain the level has only risen 3"-5".

Sand Island has  some beach, but the trap islands and the smaller islands are still under water.

On the up side, you can pretty much boat anywhere with out being overly concerned about under water hazards! (Always use your common sense and be aware  though!!!)

In spite of this week's rain the level is good - and the forecast os for a warm and sunny weekend! Get out there and have fun!

Water Temperature:68 Degrees

on the surface, although it is holding steady in the 60's up to 18' down. Just a couple of good sunny days and we will be in the 70's- excellent swimming!

Fishing:

Walleye - are on fire! It doesn't matter if you are using stick bait or crawlers -they are biting!!! (You need to know where they are though!!!!)

Perch - are doing well

Trout - Have slowed Down a bit

Bass - are still biting well - BUT YOU CAN"T KEEP THEM! The season doesn't open until the 21st - SO if you go fishing for Father's Day - Catch and RELEASE!!!!!

Tip of the Week:

Don't forget the bug spray!
Have it ready - they will be out there!
