October 6th
Main Lake Water Temperature is in the low 70s

The Lake elevation is 3785.40

Storage is 184,100 acre ft.

The Main Lake is stained

 

The Lake has come up nearly 1.5 feet over the last 2 weeks. The rain has finally moved out and it likes we have several really nice Fall days coming up.

White Bass are still suspended and trolling with deep diving Crankbaits is all I have heard about that is working.

There were a few reports of Walleye caught over the weekend, mostly by Bass fishermen. They were shallow on main lake points and most were caught on swim Baits.

Catfish are still pretty good, mostly on Punch Bait fished on baited holes.

The 32nd Ute Lake Open is in the books and it was a good one! The top 3 teams weighed in a 2 day total weights of over 20 lbs., with the winning weight of 27.45 lbs. that was all Smallmouth that included 2 over 5 lbs.!

1st Place-Aaron Brewer-27.45 lbs.

2nd Place-Jarvis/Jarvis-22.17 lbs.

3rd Place-Gentzel/Phillips-21.13 lbs.

Big bass-Aaron Brewer-5.41 lbs.

You can see the full list of final weights on Facebook at Logan Bass Club.

There seemed to be several patterns that were working for the Bass bite over the weekend. I had reports of Swim Baits, Top Water, and various soft plastics fished On Drop Shot and Neko Rigs.

Hereford Bass Club will host their final tornament of the year this coming Sunday, Oct. 11th from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. You can enter here at Ruf-Nec Tackle Saturday or at the Marina parking lot before 7:30 AM Sunday morning.
