The heat continues to keep the bite slow with anglers using night crawlers, lures, jigs and plastics to catch trout limits. The Lakes were treated last week with a biological algicide, so the mat has receded and should be clear by the weekend. The increased water flow should also help improve the bite. Hot spots were the eastern shore and northern shore of lake 2. Bass slowed as well with anglers reporting fair action at the western shore of lake 3 and the southeastern shore of lake 2 on senkos. Bluegill were hitting lures and mealworms near the pump house and the western shore of lake 2. Overall best bite was before 10am. The pay per trout Angling Pond was the best bet after 10am, where anglers paid $3.50 per trout with no limit.

The Lakes' Hatchery stocks trout every Friday year round.

Hours: Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays--7am to 4pm. For more information call (760)240-1107 or go to www.jessranchlakesnews.com.

Bass slowed as well with anglers reporting fair action at the western shore of lake 3 and the southeastern shore of lake 2 on senkos. Bluegill...... Read More

We've had hotter temperatures, but this last week was so humid and it was still 93 degrees at 11 pm. So we're moving more water and raising the lakes. We're fortunate that we can do that. It's been overcast and much cooler for the past three days so things should be much better by next week. Have a great week and take care. The weekend cool down and rain didn't offset the effects of the four day heat wave earlier in the week. Trout...... Read More
