Fresno and Nelson Fishing Report by Brian Olson 7.18.24

Fresno is 60% full, no inflow & 1066 cfs outflow. Fishing for most species remains good. Catch fish where ever your electrics indicate they are, most presentations are working. Get there while the water level is good enough to put your boat in. Nelson is 90% full, inflow is 57 cfs & outflow 263 cfs.…

Nelson is 90% full, inflow is 57 cfs & outflow 263 cfs. Fishing is excellent. Walleyes & northerns have made their way to the weeds. Fish weed lines in + – 12’ of water. Find perch & crappie deeper. Bass are everywhere but especially on rock piles. Good luck.
