Went out to Lacamas and Round Lakes today to check out the rumors that the water levels have dropped. The water is down 5-6 feet which left my favorite spots high and dry, but it gave me ideas for other places to fish in the future.

The weather was overcast with some drizzle. Actually wore a light jacket. I used spinnerbaits, topwaters, senkos, and Rat-L-Traps. Caught 9 baby bass around 7- or 8- inches long, which was weird since the lures I was using were on the larger size. I did not really expect to do well without my boat, but I was only able to break free for a couple hours. The big bass have all moved deeper with the falling water...duh! No more plastic frogs or flipping the vegetation this year, It's all dry.

Did catch a 13" Brown Trout on a perch-colored Rat-L-Trap. That was kinda cool.

Both boat ramps are unusable for trailer launching. It's now a cartopper affair.

Hey CAV,

I've also heard of the rumors, and the swampy area on the oppisite side of round lake is almost pure land! Im thinking that all the fish on that side are trapped in a small area, so if u find the water on that side, u will find the big hogs that are trapped on that side. Jigs might make the Big Dawgs bite, but since i just recently started using jigs I dont have enough experience to find those big hogs. Might hit the main lake on Saturday and fish the lillys with a boat. Try a few top waters and maybe even try a few jigs. Any place that you might recommend trying jigs on the main lake? tight lines

The mill pond is completely flat. The only standing water can only be accessed by private property, maybe behind the trailer park.

If you are on foot, you won't get by the dam because it's fenced off for repairs. The log booms are as far as you can go. So I would go around the back way. Try the dropshots because all the weeds are high and dry. Topwaters garnered no interest from the bass and it was optimum topwater conditions. If you can't boat it, definitely try the back side of Round Lake between the little dock around the point and the dam. It opened up some real pretty structure. I just didn't have time to go back around. If using a boat, work the bends in the channel where the vegetation hasn't been drained yet. You'll see what I'm talking about when you get there.

Don't forget some faster lures like crankbaits, Rat-L-Traps, and even in-line spinners. Good Luck!!!
