The Department of Fish & Game has stocked the lake on Thursday December 15th at the West ramp with 900 lbs. of trout.
Fishing has been a little on the slow side for the stripers but some anglers are getting lucky on top water baits with these random boils that keep popping up. Spooks and Flukes are still the baits pulling in the few stripers that have been biting. The stripers don't hang around too long but you can still find a few looking for trout at dawn and dusk around the marinas.
The buoy line hasn't had too much action but when they are biting, its wide open. Sardines and anchovies are a good start for the buoy line as well as around Kong Island and the mouth of Elizabeth Canyon. The largemouth bass are still hitting on some plastics but are being more lethargic than in recent weeks. The coves on the west side of the fish arm have been holding a lot of largies that are hanging around in about 15 to 25 ft. of water.
The catfish bite was really good this past week, not many big ones but a lot of 3 to 5 pounders. The lagoon action has been doing about the same, not too much going on cause the largemouth are pretty lethargic down there too.
