Fishing on Lake Shasta continues to be very good. However, with warming weather on the way this will probably be the last week or two where you can get fish on a fly rod. There is a lot of traffic on the Jones Valley ramp, the Squaw Creek and Pit arms are definitely fishing well. The shad and olive Float n' Fly fished at least 7 ft will get you connected. The lake is nearing full pool and a lot of fish will congregate in the back coves near structure like willows and deadfalls, look on points as well for cruising fish. A sinking line with a crayfish pattern fished back towards the bank and as deep as you can get it is effective as well. The lake will begin warming over the next few weeks, this is the time to get after the bass with your fly rod while it lasts. We have guides who can get you out, give Bryan a call to set up a trip!
