Walleye are SNAPPING

Water Temp = 67 degrees

The Holiday weekend has been a good one for fishing and camping. Thousands of people spent their holiday weekend here at Ute Lake, all having a great time fishing, camping and enjoying their water sports. With that said, the fishing is heating up the last 3-4 days.

Walleye --- Limits can be expected trolling Wally Divers and Reef Runners in 10-20 feet of water near or in the brush. I like my lures running just deep enough to hit the top of the brush. Minnows worked along the channel in 15-20 feet of water is also producing fish.

White Bass -- I'm starting to catch more of them while trolling for the Walleye. With limits of Walleye, you can also catch 10-15 Whites while trolling.

Small mouth --- They continue there feeding. Casting lures, using minnows or crawlers in about any location of the lake will produce fish.

Large mouth --- Casting Senkos near the reeds early in the morning is catching 2-3 pounders. Top water is also producing fish, but not as many.

Crappie -- still scattered, however, I have seen a few limits taken with minnows up the Canadian near the Adobe house in 5-6 feet of water. Many Whites are also being caught while Crappie fishing.

Catfish -- On a pretty good bite. My buddy is catching 10-15 fish ranging from 2-6 pounds nearly every time he goes out. Stink bait near reeds in 2-6 feet of water is the ticket.
