Hello from your Lake Jennings! We are open Thanksgiving Day at 5:45 a.m. The trout bite has finally picked up. We had limits come from the Cactus Patch, fishing float, and Shadow Cove. Short leaders and salmon peach Power Bait were the hot tickets. The limits are not fast - four hours is the quickest limit we know of. Bass have slowed down. There is still some action on the bank early and late with the fish off the bank to 15 to 25 ft. of water. Steep banks are best. Cats are a still reliable bite if you fish deeper than 50 ft.

Best Trout Spots: Cactus Patch, fishing float and Shadow Cove.
Best Trout Lures/Bait: Salmon peach Power Bait.

Best Catfish Spots: The dam buoyline and Hermit Cove buoyline.
Best Catfish Bait: Chicken livers, mackerel, and night crawlers. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: Target the steep banks, fish downhill with Senkos into 25 ft. of water.
Best Bass Lures/Bait: Senkos.

Notables: No fish over 3 lbs. reported or limits under 1 hour.

Prognosis: Our 6th trout plant is on schedule for Wednesday, November 25th. We will stock 1,000lbs. every week for the next 18 weeks. The inventory is up to the point where we are seeing more trout limits. We are bringing back our twilight boat rentals. Motorboats are $20.00 for the last three hours that we are open. So you can get a boat at 2:15 p.m. for $20.00. Information about the Sierra Bow Trout can be found at http://www.mtlassentrout.com/sierrabow.html .

Water Temperature: 66 degrees on the surface.

Thanksgiving Weekend Schedule: We'll be open this Thursday (Thanksgiving Day), Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 5:45 a.m. - 5:15p.m.
