Blue ridge June 2025
Temp 76
Clarity  8 ft
Level full
Blue ridge late spring bite gas been off the charts at times . Walleye are cruising the drop offs and weed bed edges looking for blue backs . 12 to 30ft seems to be best right now . This will change as the lake warms up this month.  This depth offers anglers the chance to employ their favorite tactics to target the tasty fish.  Live bait ,artificials, trolling ,jigging,casting you pick just get the bait right in the face for best results.  The fish are spread out so location isn’t really a factor it’s more about finding what they will eat each day vs where they are . Once you dial in the presentation you can catch them all over the lake . Rapalas , spoons, and crawler harnesses are my top 3 go to baits currently.
The trout have just started showing up and are looking great . Thick chrome and green is how they look after being in the lake a few months feeding on herring.  You can catch them on a variety of baits from spoons and lure to worms and minnows . Look from 15 to 35ft deep and very your speed till you find out how fast they want it .
