Remember, Rainbow are CATCH & RELEASE for now, unless fish is severely injured and will not survive. Recently a member caught a rainbow with a fungus on the sides. This fish would have died within weeks, best to remove from lakes. This injury and fungus attack is caused whenever a fish is over handled by a fisherman. You could see the hand imprints on the fish's sides where it had been held, thus removing the natural protective slime covering that prevents everpresent natural fungus from attaching to a fish. This can happen to any fresh water fish species so we should always try to have our hands wet if we touch a fish we plan to release, and handle them to a minimum if you plan to do catch and release.
All lakes full pool, water clear, water running thru. Several new brush piles placed in both larger lakes in water around 8 to 10 foot in depth.
Use of bait, other than artificial lures/flies is limited to children. Only exception is for adults fishing in Lago De Pescadoes Grande.
