Ruby Lake is ice free. Anglers fishing the collection ditch are reporting fair to good angling for trout with trout over 20 inches being reported. Fall stocking has also increased angler success at the south springs. Dry fly fishing has slowed, and fly anglers are switching to leeches, streams and chironomids. Small, flashy spinners like Panther Martins are the go-to for spin anglers. Bass fishing is done for the season. Special Regulations:  Artificial lures only in the collection ditch. No wading allowed in the collection ditch.
