    i've been catching fish in 2 to 4 ft of water up close to the dam since late january. we usually don't catch many fish, but the the ones we have caught have been nice. we went last friday evening and kept 10 with the smallest being 12 inches and two that were over 2 lbs. i haven't had much luck with jigs, minnows seem to work best for me. the water was 67 where we were fishing, but i'm not sure about the other parts of the lake, low to mid 50's i would guess. i have an afternoon off this week so i might be heading up there again. if so i'll report back. good luck.
