We had a great opening day here at Convict Lake. Biggest fish 4lb. 10oz. brought in by the Nichols' Family from Pomona, CA, caught on Hatchery Petite PowerBait near the inlet. Second largest fish 4lb. 4oz. brought in by John Giroux from Lakewood, CA part of a 10lb. 14oz. stringer, caught on Thomas Bouyant along the South Shore.

Lot's of full stringers coming in...the Phamtoms Fishermen from So Cal cleaning it up with PowerBait on the South Shore. Jacob Mahler from Mammoth Lakes bringing in a 4lb. 20oz. stringer won this weeks Booyah Flipstah by YUM. Jacob was out on a boat with his family trolling all around with Needle Fish.

Fish were caught all around the lake but mainly the South Shore and Inlet area with a few strings out near Hangman's Tree. The most productive baits were yellow, rainbow and cheese PowerBait, Thomas Bouyants and Needle Fish.
