Trout fishing has been fair, but the "bows" that come in have all been quality, with several between 5 and 7 being weighed in at the tackle shop. Trolling lead core 3 to 4 colors anywhere from the dam to the narrows with dodger/crawler combos, rapalas, or neddlefish is getting the job done.

There was a 4,000 lb plant from the Calaveras hatchery which should provide excellent action in the upcoming weeks. As far as Bass, it was last known that both largemouth and smallmouth had moved up into shallow water, and were taking a variety of lures. Jerk baits blades, and plastics have all been......
