Stocking report: http://www.fishnh.com/Fishing/Stocking/current.html
Summer Fun: Let us help you get those kids outside! We still have space in two sessions for boys and girls at Barry Conservation Camp in Milan, NH. The week of July 8-13 is “All about Fishing,” a fun week where youth ages 10-16 can get into fishing or sharpen their angling skills. There's also room in “Wild Side II,” July 29-August 3; this is an exciting week of outdoor adventure for youth age 12-16. They'll hike, paddle a remote lake, explore local wildlife, learn outdoor survival skills and more. Sign up at http://extension.unh.edu/4H/4HCamps.htm or contact 4Hcamps@unh.edu or 603-788-4961. Barry Camp is operated by UNH Cooperative Extension 4-H and Fish and Game.

With summer moving into full swing, it is time to enjoy an evening on the lake with friends, the grill, and the fishing rod. While some people prefer to fish with half a million of their closest friends, many anglers prefer to hit the water alone. Whatever your fishing style is, it is good to hear a few tips when you set your sights on a favorite game fish: black bass, aka smallmouth and largemouth bass.
Many anglers agree that fishing with plastic worms works great for bass, especially in warmer, less-clear water. If the lake you have your sights set on is as clear as glass and really cold, it is time to switch to something more lively. Night crawlers seem to do the trick when the bass can see through the phony worms. Large and smallmouth bass alike prefer to hang out in the aquatic vegetation or under manmade objects like docks and bridges. During the heat of day, bass will move to deeper water; however, they will remain in shallow water if the water temperature stays cool enough (<70oF><Lakes><Monadnock><Southeast><Seacoast><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><>
