Despite the ho tweather this week, a wide variety of fish were caught all throughout the day. Trout are still hitting Rapalas, Kastmasters, and Needlefish like clockwork but with the increasing water temperature, anglers were having to experiment with different depths anywhere from 6ft to 25ft. The catfish have been very active recently and biting a wide variety of baits including mackerel, nightcrawlers, dough balls, and even gold Kastmasters in murky waters. Santa Cruz and Cachuma Bay produced the most limits of cats this week. Working the bank along Jack Rabbits Flats is the way to go for a stellar bass bite. Spinners and deep cranks seemed to be the go~to lures for the anglers catching their limit. Even the crappie made a good showing on the east end of the lake in the earlier morning and later evening. The large amount of tree stumps and structure is a little hazardous for boats but allows for excellent panfish habits.

Water Temperature: 68 Degrees

Bass: Good
Bluegill: Good Catfish: Fair
Crappie: Fair
Redear: Excellent

Trout and catfish topped the charts this week as limits were caught from both boats and the shorelines. Trolling by the dam is still the best bet for boaters while E Point and the launch point were the hot spots for shore fisherman. Rapalas, Kastmasters, and Flicker Shad lures brought in trout like clockwork. Nightcrawlers and greenpumpkin trout dough worked the best from the banks. Catfish bit mackerel and worms in every cove on the lake this week and even hit on spinners at the......
