I got there with my little sister around 5:30 PM, and, having never fished there before, set up on the bank of the swimming area with her. We saw a few risers but they wouldn't take my Rooster Tail or her power nugget (I think I had it rigged incorrectly, actually). I asked around and found out where the dock was. We walked there, and got there as someone was pulling a little <7 inch rainbow out of the water. They were using Berkley Trout worms about 4 feet off the bottom. I cast my rooster tail around for about half an hour, letting it sink before slowly retrieving it but no luck. Apparently the powerbait nuggets don't float by themselves (my sister had to slowly retrieve hers along the bottom- no luck). I rigged up a green corky on 2 feet of leader with a 5" Luck-E-Strike worm and a couple nuggets. We packed up and left around 7:40. Nobody else got anything, and it was COLD.
