Despite the heavy afternoon winds and minor rain this week, every species in the lake was caught besides the carp. A few hold over rainbow trout came up to the top to bite night crawler by the dam, and even a couple redear hit back to back off Santa Cruz Point. Santa Ynez Valley local, Nick Giese, had a stellar day this weekend catching 40-50 fish. Throwing out live worms, rattle traps, and curly tail grubs off the rocky points by the dam, he hooked up on 30+ smallmouths within a few hours. Giese also reported 5 catfish, 5 bluegill, and 8 largemouths in the same area.

Bass: Excellent
Catfish: Good
