MARDON — The current water level on Potholes Reservoir is 1,039.05 feet, rising 0.65 feet this week. We are currently 7.45 feet below full pool. The water temperature is 42-44 degrees on the main reservoir. Not much has changed since last week. With the dropping water temps, the fish are sliding into their winter habits, going deeper and not feeding as often. Slow your presentation down for walleye and bass.
