Anglers reported good to excellent trout action on both lakes this week. Trout were hitting Power Bait ( especially rainbow, salmon peach and garlic), night crawlers inflated and doused with attractant, jigs and lures. Lots of limits went out with most trout near or over two pounds. Hot spots included the eastern logged shore and western shore from the pump house to the bridge of lake 3 as well as the northern and eastern shores of lake 2.

The Lakes' Hatchery stocks trout every Friday year round.
This year the Lakes' hatchery is amping up the weekly trout stockings with bigger fish overall. Hours: Friday through Sunday--7am to 4pm. For more information call (760)240-1107 or go to www.jessranchlakesnews.com
