Trout season is just about over. Warmer water temperatures have pushed the few trout that are left into the deeper areas of the lake. The best baits have been powerbait and/or powerworms, or inflated nightcrawlers.
Bass fishing is good especially in the early morning when the shad are in close to shore. Ray Zepeda of Valley Center caught and released a 4.35# Bass on a plastic worm near the West Buoys. Shad raps, crawdads, and dark colored plastics are all good baits. Bass can be found near rock piles especially in the morning and late afternoons.
Crappie are being caught almost exclusively in the early mornings. Jerry Harris of Riverside weighed in some crappie on Sunday the largest being 1.70#s.They were caught on golden shiners in Boat Dock Cove. Crappie are most often caught using small jigs or live golden shiners.
The first of four catfish plants is scheduled for July 1st. Catfish are becoming easier to find throughout the lake and prefer cut mackerel or chicken liver. Stop by the ranger station for a doughbait recipe that works well on both catfish and carp.
