Fresno is 27% full. Inflow 25 cfs outflow 100 cfs. Walleye fishing is fair. Level is quite low, best fishing is in the lower third of the reservoir. Fish the drop offs from 10’ to as deep as you find. Use electronics to locate fish. Nelson is 83% full. Inflow 20 cfs with no outflow. Walleye fishing is good. I fished there early in the week and had a limit in less than an hour. Concentrate on the weed lines in 10’ – 15’ of water. Most methods should work. Good fishing.
