Trout: Still some trout out there near the dam. Over the past week a few rainbows showed up in a few anglers creels.
Bass: The Largemouth are continuing to be found throughout the lake. Plenty of 1 and 2 pounders were reported; all but a few were caught and released. Brain Scott, Campo, came in with intent and caught and released his 10 Largemouths and went home happy. The next day Brian teamed up with Alex Torres in a duel to the end. Alex came in second with his six 2 lbers all caught and released. Better luck next week Alex.
Catfish: The Catfish have continued to please anglers with many limits reported. Nightcrawlers are the best bet, and then comes Chicken Livers as the second best bait. One of the better spots was near the boulders at Cabin cove. An example of this knowledge was used by Jimmy Drzevieck and Tim Rush of El Cajon. Plying mackerel and nightcrawlers or a combo of the two they managed their limits plus more. Two of their captives were the Blue cats weighing over 4 lbs.
Blue Gill: Geezer cove has provided a few opportunities of success for Bluegills. Cabin cove has also fared well with small hooks and segments of Nightcrawlers.
Crappie: The Crappie have been scarce the last few weeks.
Carp: These fish are mouthing the surface parading around the boat dock. Other stories are of them doing a dancing ritual bobbing out of the water prairie dog style.
Boat Launch conditions: Boat launching is open for private boats.
