How’s Fishing? Beaver Lake

“How’s fishing?” It’s alright but sure ain’t like previous years…. We working for them…. Each day is unpredictable but will catch a decent mess but not gonna slay them. I’ll be honest with you…. That’s basically how the conversation goes with folks.

Fishing continues to be a grind. Catching tons of shorts. Catching so many shorts I’ve been asking for a couple more dozen minnows to my traditional 10 dozen I ask for each trip. By the end of each trip we may have a handful left! Keeping the minnow farms in business around here lol…

Keeping size fish are still far between. Scattered out. The good thing though you find one it’s highly likely gonna eat.

WT is hovering right at the 80’s. Water clarity is slightly stained. The average depth I’ve been catching fish is 15 fow and about 8-10 feet deep. Started moving out closer the channel along the flats. Fish seem to be relating more to it now with the Corp dumping the lake level. I think someone said 6 inches a day. It seemed to drop almost 2 feet between trips that I had a couple days apart. They gonna suck all the fish out of areas. Lake elevation sets right now at 1121.6

Method is still minnow rigging 16ft BnM PST’s with 1oz rigs I tie up with Vanguard Tackle/Pico Lures. Speed I’m moving is about .5-.6 mph and constantly turning the trolling motor looking for a keeper. Gonna burn up a bearing with how much I’ve had to do that the past couple months.

It’s been a fun past couple weeks though. Meeting people from Las Angeles and taking them to experience something they’ve never done to senior citizens that have been married for 67 years. A former professional baseball player and his spirted wife. Folks from all walks of life. Been a fun experience. Thank y’all

Like I said it’s unpredictable. Gonna just keep plugging away at it

Good fishing
