The wind has made fishing hard this last week with bass leading the catch, hitting synthetics and worms. A 7 lb trout was the kill of the week landed in bobcat canyon off a spinner bait. The crappie are starting to rear their heads with one angler claiming his limit from the east end of the lake off a jig. the cats are starting to bite on mackerel. There were a couple blue gill caught by the boat launch. Looks to be a great week for fishing!
