On the Water: Take advantage of conditions in August
['Capt. Bill Russell']

Fishing can be good, and often without much competition, if you plan your day to take advantage of conditions.
Look for larger trout over areas of open water where shallow sand bars transition to deeper grass flats from 3-6 feet deep with good water movement.
Schools of small bait fish concentrate in these areas.
Some days we do better fishing baits on bottom and other days suspending baits under a float does the trick.
A couple of rainy days with limited sunshine and water temperature will drop several degrees; this can trigger good fishing.
