    Hagg Reports?

    Where are you fishing? Where are you fishing? The best fishing of the year is from Sept until they close the lake. But you stay home and I will catch your share!

    Hagg Lake trout fishing

    Start Time Start Time We try to get an early start for the morning bite, but you never know what they are going to do. Afternoons can be good when you get some wind on the water. It's going to stay tough until the water gets to about 55 degrees, and it's only 48-49 degrees now. Phillip

    Hagg Lake trout fishing

    Keep Trying Keep Trying Ramp C troll to the right for 1000 yards, then reverse. I tried every color, but only hot red worked. The lure must be something that wobbles enough to irritate them. Spinner baits aren't working yet. Depth is 5 to 7 feet. Good luck!

    Hagg Lake trout fishing

    Fished Hagg Lake yesterday and you would have thought it was July. The mesquitoes were just unbelievabe and so were the crowds. The water was still 49 degrees and fishing was very slow. After noon, what bite there was just died. By next week the water should warm up a few degrees, and the...

    Commonwealth Lake Fishing

    Any small spinner type, usually brass ia effective as is the bait you tried. the problem is the watter temp. It is just to cold for the fish to be active. Hopefully it will pick up when the temp of the water is over 50 degrees. currently it is 46-47 degrees. It will only get better as the...

    Patience at Hagg Lake

    All right, you guys are all beating around the bush to find out what I used to catch a big one. My buddy saw that picture last week of the broken back Rappala, so he ran down and saved Joe's from bankruptcy. While he was dagging around his bank account all day, I had a trick up my sleeve...

    Patience at Hagg Lake

    Most of the fish were holding in 5 to 15 feet of water, and I was probably in the five foot range. I caught them where most of the big ones have been caught, about 1/4 mile to the right of Ramp C where the creek comes in . I believe it is Sain creek. But there are fish everywhere, and they...

    Patience at Hagg Lake

    We started fishing at 8 AM nd in the first thirty minutes had a 12" stocker and a 19" holdover weighing about 4 lbs. After that not one bite all day, and there were fish everywhere. 46 degree water just doesn't cut it. I'll be back when the water temp gets over 50 degrees. We did not see any...
