GENERAL CONDITIONS

Lake Chabot is 93% FULL! We are expecting a few nice days this upcoming week, temperatures are expected to be in low 80’s. Catfishing has remained fairly slow, while bass fishing is slowly getting better and better. Water temperature remains in the low 70’s and water clarity is about 6 feet. We are done with catfish plants for the season and are currently waiting for the water temperature to cool down before we start planting trout again. Please follow our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/lakechabot, for daily updates on fishing conditions.

All of our boats are half off Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdays, including Patio Boats!!

CATFISH

No reports of catfish were reported getting caught this past week. Typically, catfishing should be pretty good this time of the year. When fishing for catfish, the best bait to use is either chicken liver or mackerel. Make sure to cut a 2” inch chunk of mackerel and put it on a size 1 or 2 hook and a half ounce weight works best. A simple trick to use when using this bait is wrapping magic thread around the bait to ensure that it doesn’t fly off when casting. Typical hotspot for catfishing is fishing near the Island and back by Raccoon Point.

TROUT

Trout fishing is slow this time of the year. We are waiting for water conditions to cool back down a little, before we start planting trout again.

BASS

Bass fishing has picked up quite a bit. Many anglers are using plastic worms to catch bass. Senkos have been the most popular bait to use. Currently hotspots are over by the Island, Raccoon Point, and Alder Point. Please practice catch and release for bass, as they are not stocked into the lake and their population depends on you!
