MarDon Fresh News – January 5, 2018 

The current water level is 1042.10 feet on the Potholes Reservoir. The water temperature on the main lake is 32-33 degrees. The main lake is free of ice, but the sand dunes are approximately 85% frozen.

Fishing: No fishing reports this week, but now is a good time of the year to be out fishing for walleye. Fish the deeper humps off the dunes and the humps just Northwest of Goose Island. Blade Baits are the top producing bait. The face of the dam is still producing walleye on swimbaits and Blade Baits. Fish 20-30 feet of water next to the dam. 

Hunting: The duck hunting been a bit tough again this week.  Goose hunting in the fields has been productive this past week. Hunters have been doing well on both darker geese as well as Snow Geese.

Happy New Year form all of us at MarDon Resort!
