Salmon will usually be deeper than trout by a few feet. Bank fishing with bait will be slower except very early and late in the day. Brown trout fishing best in protected coves, especially early, and late in the day. Sometimes in late spring and in October, cool crisp weather can bring trout and salmon to upper 15-25 feet at times. Smallmouth Bass - Are still fairly common, but seem to be fewer each year.
Anglers take some nice smallmouth on jigs in spring.
Largemouth Bass - Spring is the best time to catch largemouth. Target willows or brush piles in 2 to 15 feet of water in the backs of coves. Spotted Bass - Huge numbers of spots dominate catches. Top water lures work almost year round, while plastics and reaction baits are best in spring and summer. Sponing is the top fall method.
