Largemouth bass can be found in deeper water around submerged cover. Anglers will want to slow down their presentation with the colder water temperatures.
Anglers can still find yellow perch by fishing the mud flats in about 20 feet of water. Yellow perch are biting on small jigs or a worm on a hook. If you fish and area for 10-15 minutes without a bite, it’s time to move to another location.
Boat anglers continue to catch a few wild coho trolling in the upper arms of Tenmile Lakes. Most of the recent coho being caught are very colored up and ready to spawn once they can get into the creeks. The wild coho fishery is open on Tenmile Lake through Dec. 31. Anglers are allowed to harvest 1 wild coho per day and 5 for the season in aggregate with Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes.
