Happy Saturday from lakes Sahoma and Pretty Water!
End of August Fishing Update: Check out what's been biting! Successful lures/baits have been minnows, jigs, worms, cut panfish, and stinky dough bait. The water temp is currently 82 degrees with water visibility standing around a medium level between stained and dingy. As fall draws nearer with cooler mornings and evenings, the fish are becoming more active -- perfect conditions for a weekend of bank or boat fishing!
Citywide fishing permits -- in addition to state licenses -- are required to fish both lakes, and permits are available at the Lake Sahoma Bait Shop along with minnows, worms, light tackle, drinks and snacks. While you visit our beautiful lakes, remember to keep our waterways clean and dispose of any trash in the designated dumpsters. Happy fishing!
