Texas Fish Report

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Lake Cuyamaca. We are in the midst of duckl hunting so our hours have changed. We are closed all day Wednesdays and closed Sunday mornings until 10 am. Mt. Lassen delivered 1000 pounds of rainbows plus. DFG brought us 1100 pounds of 1 1/2 to 2 pounders. Free fishing class starts at 10:00 am at the Launch Ramp. Tell the ranger if you want to attend. Decontamination washdown is required for all private vessels and motors before a launch. Float tubes and waders must be washed down before using the lake. There is a fee for the wash down. For further information or to make reservations for camping, condos or cabins, please call 877-581-9904.
