Those people who keep track of such things tell us this past July was the hottest month on record.
And, not only was it the hottest July, but the hottest anything….
Deep Creek Lake — The largemouths are finally starting to make an appearance. LOU guides Bret Winegardner and Brent Nelson are finding them around both grass beds and boat docks while throwing wacky-rigged plastics along with frogs, spinnerbaits, buzzbaits and chatterbaits.
For the smallmouth, the best areas continue to be the park shoreline, offshore humps and rocky shores and coves toward the dam. If you seek those big Deep Creek bluegill, try around the docks and also look along the grassbeds and in stump fields.
