Fish Report for the week of 1-28-12 to 2-03-12 Lake Morena Regional Park - Campo, CA

In order to protect the integrity of Lake Morena Watershed the following Restrictions are now in effect:

ALL LIVE BAIT FISH AND CRAYFISH ARE PROHIBITED!

Lake Conditions: Surface temp.48.5 and 47.3 @ 20 ft. Water visibility is 3' to 5'

. ** IMPORTANT NOTE** There are currently no state fishing licenses available in Lake Morena so be sure you acquire one before you arrive. Winter fishing is still doing great at Lake Morena. Fishing remains consistent with great action on Trout reported from our anglers.

Trout: Anglers are still finding rainbows using gold Kastmaster, night crawlers, power bait, Shad raps, spinners and rapalas near the dam and Paradise cove. Other areas are opening up such as Pumphouse cove and a few were reported in horseshoe cove. Mac Mitchell, Randy Minniear, Rick Morse, Ryan and Jim White were all working the Paradise cove/Dam area this week. Many limits from them in the 4 to 7 pound range. Rubin Cabrea and friends were fooling blue gill and rainbows in Cabin cove with powerbait and nightcrawlers. Dan "Bigboy" from Santuckey was fooling them in Horseshoe cove with Powerbait. Steve Parsons of Campo got away from his 'Honeydoos' long enough to limit in a matter of hours at Geezer cove. The Best for last; Jim Rice and his patience hooked a 9lb 12oz lunker in Paradise cove with rainbow Powerbait. And the largest so far this season here goes to Michael Strine of Lakeside with his 11 lb 2oz in Paradise cove with green Powerbait. Best bet is to rent one of our boats and work the lake.

Carp: Still splashing, they like corn and corn meal balls.

Bass: No action on the Bass lately.

Blue Gill: No action on the Blue Gill here lately.

Crappie: No sign of Crappie this time of year.

Catfish: If you have the Mackerel then the Cats are biting near the dam.
