Bridgeport Reservoir is tough right because of the weeds and water temps

Tom Loe

Report Date:8-2-2012

Wish I could tell you that conditions have improved for fly fishers here. Due to the excessive weed in water depths of 17-20 feet still water nymphing has been very tough despite very good reports from anglers using other methods in deeper water. The lake is still at a good level considering the dry year with great access at the Marina for boat launching. I believe the fall season will be very good here for tubers near the dam and public launch ramp areas, just needs to cool down some.
