The Department of Fish and Game did a surprise trout plant of 900 # on Wednesday March 30.
Striper fishing is showing signs of picking up recently. A few stripers have been caught around the ramp and the dam on anchovies and sardines. The swimbait bite for stripers hasn't been that great. The largies at the upper lake have been doing great all day long on plastics and nightcrawlers. You can sight fish for most of these largies because in some parts of the lake the water is clear for 25 to 30 feet.
The nightcrawlers are still working great at the lagoon for the largies catfish and carp. The carp are everywhere at the upper lake and boiling (not to be mistaken for stripers) in some coves.
Crappie are still biting at the lower lagoon on the Berkley maggots and wax worms. At the buoy line some of the better striper action has been coming from mackerel being fished around 80 to 100 feet.
