Fishing Lake Camanche This Week March 31

At Camanche this week the water is stabilizing with 2,218 CFS coming in and 1,601 going out. The surface temperatures of the water is hitting 61° in the afternoon, in some places and the fish are moving shallow.

If you go, make sure you fish THE DAY, meaning fish the conditions of that particular day.

On stormy days, you want to throw reaction baits and on sunny and callm days, stick with the bottom baits like worms,jigs, Senkos etc.

If the inflow and outflow are close, fishing is usually pretty good and if the outflow is greater than the inflow, it usually makes the fish suspend and that is when the fishing can be challenging.

I hope this helps.

Good luck fishing and please practice catch and release

Thanks for the report. I was out on Saturday and Sunday. I launched from South Shore on Saturday early and only had one bite on a jig with a sweet beaver in some submerged brush at less than 4 ft. It was a decent fish at 3.5lbs. I couldn't get any other bites on Senkos or crankbaits. Sunday I took the family and launched at 3pm from North shore and we hit the narrows, but we had 0 bites. That was my first 2 times being at that lake and I'm looking forward to going back. I had a heard time finding submerged structure of any kind.
