BOULDER MOUNTAIN LAKES: Good fishing on several of the North Slope lakes. Some of the best reports have come from Fish Creek , where fishing was good to excellent for splake and tiger trout. Cutthroats are also present. Fishing is very good at Donkey for small- to medium-size — up to 14 inches — brook trout. Fishing has also been good at Blind Lake. Good success reported for brook trout and a few grayling at the Row Lakes using spinners

CLEAR CREEK: Water is clear and fishing is good, especially for rainbows in the upper stretches. Try wet flies if the trout are not hitting top water flies. Drifting worms through the holes has also been productive.

FISH LAKE: Fishing for perch is fast by jigging just off the weedline. Fishing for splake is generally slow—some fish have been caught jigging at 40 to 60 feet. Good success for rainbows trolling pop gear in 15 to 20 feet or still fishing PowerBait from a boat. Trolling for lake trout is slow to fair some action trolling at 70 to 80 feet.

NEWCASTLE: The wipers are biting. Anglers reported success from shore using lures, jigs and dead shiners.

OTTER CREEK: Fishing has slowed but is still good from boats. Fish are right on the bottom, so troll down the middle of the lake or along the south point. Shore fishing is slow — most shore anglers are just catching chubs.

SAND HOLLOW: Bass fishing was good to excellent. Lots of small bass caught near shore with a variety of lures and jigs. In general, green seems to be a productive color. Larger fish are in deeper water. Fish are found in most habitats, from the rocky dikes to submerged brush. Recent sampling found lots of small bass as well as good numbers of larger fish up to four pounds.
