Boat Dock Closes: 6:00 PM (Boats called in at 5:45 PM)
Last Stock: August 12 - 500 pounds of Catfish

Next Stock: End of Catfish Stocking
Water Temperature: 76-78
Water Level: Holding steady

The hot summer days are definitely here this past week. Try fishing the early morning and late evening hours for better chances of picking up the catfish bite since night fishing is over.

Not much action around the lake with the hot weather still around. Susan Borger from Arizona did not seem to mind the hot weather as she produced a 3.6 pound bass near Bass Point. Some top water action from a popper entices this nice size bass. It is always exciting to see a fish explode on the bait from the surface. Nicely Done!! Dixon's last stocks were on August 5 and August 12, with 500 pounds of Catfish. Most of the fish are between 1-3 pounds. Mackerel and anchovies are working best. There is a small amount of catfish being taken out at the Buoy Line. Any of the fishing piers at Dixon is a good spot for the Bluegills. Red and meal worms are working well for the smaller size bluegills. Boat rental rates will be $35 for All Day motor boats, $30 for Half Day motors. Row boats rates are $17 All Day and $14 for Half Day.

Trout action will start here around the first of November. Maybe sooner if the water temps cool off by then. No stocking schedule has been finalized yet, though we can expect another nice year of stocking those "Tail Walkers" from Chaulk Mound Trout Ranch from good ol' Nebraska.
