My family and I went last Sunday (5-4) and there was no sign of ice anywhere. Hardly any snow in the vicinity either. The road was in good shape, apart from three areas where rocks had tumbled down into the roadway.
The north end was a little murky with Low Pass Creek coming in muddy and the Duchesne pipe flowing in slightly off-color.
Only caught a cutthroat from the north end.
The dam was business as usual for May:
Evening bite was good using Gulp minnows.
Hardware got me nowhere.
A drowning worm got a hit for my wife, but it wasn't very productive, overall.
No minnows to be seen along the dam yet. DOH! (more Ritz for me)
It's a great time of year to hit CC from shore, so get after it. Plenty of big tigers in there to go around, although the biggest I was able to keep on the hook was only a little over 20".
Gulp minnows, 1/16oz jig head, and 4lb line. Most bites were from within 20 ft of the dam.
