Pactola Reservoir, Pennington County (all postings)

How's the action out there right now? And what's the water level at?

(16 April 2006) Me and some buddies headed out to Pactola after Sheridan Lake didn't treat us too good. 5 minutes after we got out there, nailed a 11" brown on a chartruese grub. Later caught a few on crawlers at about 13" or so. My buddy stumbled onto a spawning bed of em and started reeling em in on rapala's and a 1/8 ounce rattle trap (silver w/ black back). Caught our limit 2 times over in a couple of hours. We were fishing off the bank near Jenny's Gulch where the old boat ramp leads into the main lake.
