Bridgeport is still kicking out some good fish these days, though not every angler we talk to has been successful. The trolling still seems to be the best technique with lots of anglers reporting 3 to 6 fish per day and we just had a 6 lb 9 oz rainbow come in just this morning. The successful trollers have been using Rapalas, crawlers, Thomas Bouyants and needlefish. There’s a few fish being caught with bait as well, not as many it seems as on the troll but over near Rainbow Point there has been some action with inflated crawlers, mice tails and power bait. The shore anglers have been doing just ok down near the dam, mostly with bait, not a lot of fish being caught from shore but some good quality fish. Haven’t talked to any fly anglers lately on the Reservoir but I’d be thinking about stripping streamers with nymphs droppers out there this time of the year.
