Winter Greetings from Lake Cuyamaca: Warm weather has heated up the trout action. Bait dunking with night crawler/power bait combo is producing stringers with some quality limits .Trolling with Rapalas and Panther Martins is also working well. Use scent for the advantage due to stained water conditions.
