          With the flows that have decreased, the lake is now coming into its
          own. For fishermen drifting night crawlers around the Frog Rock area,
          limits of 2- to 3-pound trout are being taken in the early mornings
          and when they first start the flows into the lake. For trollers, fish
          are being caught with flashers and a night crawler trailer, or the
          ever-popular gold with fluorescent orange back J-9 Rapala. Trollers
          are working the Cooper’s Gulch area and also the point across the
          lake from Cooper’s Gulch. Last weekend Duane Spencer, while
          trolling, caught a 4.5-pound trout, a beautiful holdover trout that is
          a product of Jim Deichler’s program to bring back trophy trout to
          Lewiston Lake.

          Drifting night crawlers around the dam area and also from above
          Frog Rock is catching limits of trout ranging from 16 to 19 inches.
          Trolling with Super-Dupers and needlefish is also catching limits of
          trout, with most of the trolling being done in the Lake View Terrace
          and Cooper Gulch areas.

          Fly fishing is almost nonexistent now, but for fishermen who are
          somewhat adventurous it can be real fun. Take your boat all the way up
          to Frog Rock, turn off the engine and slowly drift a nightcrawler with
          the current behind the boat. You will be surprised at what you can
          catch. A week ago, by doing this limits of trout ranging from 15 to 20
          inches were caught.

          Lewiston Lake: 
          With the continuous storms that have inundated the region in recent
          weeks, the trout fishing on these lakes has been nonexistent.
