MarDon Resort Fresh News – November 10, 2022
The current water level on the Potholes Reservoir is 1035.70 feet – coming up 1.50 feet
over the past week. The water temps on the Potholes Reservoir are in the low - 50s.
Not too many folks out fishing this past week, but the overall fishing remains good.
For trout - Troll Wee Gee spoons, Needlefish, or #7 Flicker Shads at 2-3 miles per hour.
Fish along Medicare Beach and in front of the State Park. Troll Wedding Rings with a worm
on the face of the sand dunes for trout – and all other species. Bank fish from Medicare
Beach using PowerBait or night crawlers on the bottom with a 1/4 oz. egg weight. A 5.00”
white grub on a . oz. jig head has been catching fish as well. Cast it out – let it get to the
bottom and slowly reel it back.
For bass – fish the face of the sand dunes in 8-20 feet. The rock piles between Goose
Island and the face of the dam, and the mouth of Crab Creek have been producing decent
smallmouth. Fish . oz. Norisada blade baits, tubes, crankbaits, jigs and swimbaits.
Walleye fishing has been decent this past week trolling bottom bouncers Fish the humps on
the face of the sand dunes. Fish 8-20 feet with a slow death rig and a 1-2 oz bottom walker
and crawler. Now is the time to get out the blade baits and start jigging! Use a . oz blade
bait in silver, perch, or red patterns.
For walleye - fish in 5-20 feet of water with nightcrawlers or Magic Bait. Use a . -1-ounce
Egg Sinker and a 1 or 1/0 Whisker Sticker hook. Fish the face of the dunes where the main
flows come in from the sand dunes, around Frenchman’s wasteway, and in Lind Coulee.
Fish the face of the sand dunes and Lind Coulee for Panfish. Crappie, Bluegill and a few
Perch are being caught. Throw Bobby Garland Baby Shads in Blue Ice, the Fisher Brothers
DS Fry in Tadpole color. Use a 1/32 oz jig head under a slip bobber. Troll #5 Flicker Shads
along the face and just inside the dunes.
The duck hunting has been fair to good depending on the wind and the location. Mixed
bags of wigeon, teal, and a few mallards have been reported.
