This past week held a few surprises on the upper lake with a few crappie being caught. Anglers had luck catching the species in utopia cove and firebreak with jerk baits in the middle of the day. Some good sized bass were caught this past week off of trout point and in cuttler cove. The 5" lunker punker worked wonders for those who threw it. The striper bite was good this week as well. Hot spots for the striper were the dam, the west ramp, and ss ski cove. The striper have been biting on kastmasters and lug worms in these locations at a depth of 30-60 feet. No trout have been put into the lake since 4-6-18.
