Hey m, your best bet is to get the AGFC app. They put out weekly reports on the states rivers and lakes. The info is supplied by local guides so is credible. I would also suggest that you use a guide for a half day trip and watch where they take you to find fish and what they are using for lures and baits. I would also suggest that if possible you take the opportunity to fish below the dam for some great trout fishing. Hope this helps a little.
Have fun and post some pics of your catch.
