Key Fish Behavior Analysis:
- With the upcoming thunderstorms, fish like trouts may be less active and seek shelter in deeper waters, while bass and perch might show increased activity near shallower areas post-storms. Keep an eye on pressure changes for better predictions.
Actionable Advice:
- Hotspot: Target western shores after sustained east winds using swimbaits for bass.
- Techniques: Use topwater frogs with upcoming low pressure and crankbaits for deeper water post-storms.
Optimal Fishing Windows:
- Look for active fish:
- Morning: 6:00 AM – 9:00 AM
- Late Afternoon: 4:30 PM – 7:30 PM
Lure Pattern Suggestions:
- Optimal sequence:
- Topwater Frog
- Crankbait
- Jigging Spoon
Water Temperature Insights:
- With the current temperature:
- Trout: More active in cooler waters, focus on shaded areas.

- Perch: Prefer shallow waters, try using bright-colored lures.
Tackle Recommendations:
- Trout: Light spinning setup with fluorocarbon line.
