Bridgeport has been excellent for bait anglers fishing out of boats still, mainly out in the middle of the lake towards Buckeye Bay. Mouse tails, gulp eggs, power bait and crawlers have all been doing well. There has also been some nice perch showing up here and there if you like some killer fish tacos!!

We haven't heard much from fly anglers lately, but I can tell you that yesterday evening there must have been an awesome callibaetis hatch because all the boats in the marina were covered with them, thousands of them, this morning when I went to get the boat out. Also there's been some really great damsel hatches every day starting around 9:30 or 10:00 each morning.
