The Pepacton reservoir is starting to fish well with reports of some nice browns being landed .Over the next couple weeks small mouth fishing will start to get hot from shore as the bass start to prepare to spawn. We will keep you posted as we start to get daily reports from our anglers.

Pepacton Reservoir Fishing Report
The Pepacton reservoir is fishing very good right now. Brown trout continue to strike on both large spoons and live bait imitations .We also used live sawbellies and had good luck in the evenings. We look forward to the action to really pick up as the daytime temperature start to rise near 90 . Small mouth bass are still along the shore lines and reachable by casting from shore. The color white is reported to be most effective on the smallmouth.
Good Luck !!
