Forecast Contributor Will Schibig, Region III Creel Clerk.Reservoir Conditions-Center Hill Dam is generating, on average, 2,300 cfs per day. The reservoir elevation is dropping and is currently at 637. Water temperatures are in the mid-to-high 80s reservoir-wide. Water temperatures are cooler, mid-to-high 70s, near the headwaters at Rock Island. Water clarity is clearing, from lack of boating traffic, and is 5-8 of visibility reservoir wide. Baitfish are starting to move back into creek arms, and some can be found in the shallows of pockets.Bass- Fishing is good. The best bite is in the back of creek arms on channel swing banks while fishing finesse presentations in 5-15. The morning topwater bite is picking up, and you can chase it later into the day following shade lines and using flukes or topwater baits. Fishing deep on main lake points and rounds in 14-20 FOW is still producing bites as well.Walleye- Fishing is good. The best fishing is on the upper end near Rock Island. The mid-lake areas are producing numbers, but lots of short fish. Everyone is trolling worm harness rigs in 18-20 FOW. Look for gravel flats or humps.
