Trout fishing is starting to come around, and a good bite was reported by shore anglers at Mohawk, Harveys, and E Point on Kastmasters, roostertails and rapalas. PowerBait and nightcrawlers worked for those wanting to soak bait. Trollers saw some limits on flat-lined Rapalas and needlefish/dodger combos with leadcore to 3 colors in the mouth of Santa Cruz and Cachuma bays.

Bass are being found around 25 ft. of water. They are taking texas rigs, as well as jigs, with a few spinnerbait fish as well. Crappie turned on a bit this last week, with some double digit numbers being reported trolling spinners in the narrows.

Bow fishing for carp has slowed some this past week, but a lack of archers made reports hard to come by. A handful of cats were also caught back in Horse Creek on mackerel, but catfish are pretty much done for the season.
