I would like to know also. Been there twice this year and both times we caught 1 small bow about 14". I know the cliff area and the dam are the two main fishing areas, but what people are catching these nice bows on, I have no clue. I have seen people sitting in both areas bait fishing , but I have also seen them trolling. I trolled both times and threw everything I had at them and no luck.
