The water level is still dropping as irrigation continues.  his is normal.  Aquatic vegetation is building so shore fishing is becoming more difficult. Best results are from a float tube or small cartop boat.  Expect good fishing for both trout and bass though trout fishing will be slowing with the warmer temperatures.  The usual worms and PowerBait, as well as small spinners, rooster tails, and panther Martins should work. Fly rodders should be using black or olive wooly buggers or leech patterns, hares ears, PT nymphs and chironomid patterns.  The same soft plastics that work at Ruby Lake NWR should work here.
