March 12th Main Lake Water Temp. High 40s

The Lake elevation is 3781.78 Storage is 160,600 acre ft.

The Main Lake is clear.

The bite is slowly starting to improve.

I had a couple of good White Bass reports this week. They are staging and are in 15 to 20 feet of water in both Ute Creek and also the Canadian in the Romero Canyon area. Crankbaits and Bootlegger Shad were working well on points in Ute Creek.

Walleye are also starting to come up out of deep water and are staging on rock and gravel points. There were a few caught this week on 3" Berkley Gulp Minnows in 20 feet of water.

There were not any reports on other species but they should start to get active soon.

Hereford Bass Club is hosting an open tournament this coming Sunday, March 17th from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. You can enter early here at Ruf-Nec Tackle or Sunday morning at the Marina parking lot. Good Luck!

I am going to kick off the new season by introducing our Build Your Own Rod and Reel Combo! You choose any Lew's Reel and match it up with a Falcon Rod and I will quote you a Combo Price. The savings can be anywhere from 12 to 20 %, depending on the package that you put together, and you have what you want, not something that was chosen by the manufacturer. Just mention the Combo Deal when you are looking and I will sharpen a pencil!

Forward facing sonar and Live Imaging is really changing the way a lot of fisherman are approaching their target. Smaller lures that can be fished throughout the water column are becoming very popular. The Berkley Power Switch is such a bait.

When a fish is located using forward facing sonar, the clock starts ticking. You need to react and present your bait as fast and precise as possible. The weight-forward design allows for precision casts, fast drop-ins and a wide range of actions to draw a strike out of the most finicky fish. The Power Switch baitfish design appeals to a wide range of species that should be tied on and ready at all times. PowerBait flavor and pre-rigged Fusion 19 hook ensure positive hook-ups. We have the 3" size in stock and weill be adding the 4" soon.

 

There are several new items in stock, stop by and take a look!

 

Until Next Week,

TIGHT LINES, GOOD FISHING, AND "MAKE 'EM BITE"!
