The lake has been stocked with 17,000lbs of Nebraska 'Tailwalkers' in the first 8 weeks! 3,000lbs of rainbow trout up to 14lbs in size were stocked on Friday January 08th
The lake will be stocked with 2,000lbs of rainbow trout on Wednesday January 22nd
Trout fishing has continues to be excellent. 3,000lbs (3 tanks) of trout were stocked last week because of the by-week on Wednesday January 15th. Tank 1 was full of 'Trophy' fish the other 2 tanks had mostly trout in the one and a half pound - two pound class. As expected the 'off' week' has been awesome. Light crowds and easy limits are the normal. Instead of catching 5 fish limits in one hour or less it is now taking a little longer with a lot of 'trophy' trout still being caught. Most fishermen catching 5 fish limits off the shoreline, on boats and via float tubes. Fish have spread out and are being caught in deep water by the dam all the way to the creek inlet. Hot spots have been in front of the concession building by the bubble holes and in the flats. Power Bait, night crawlers, mice tails, trout jigs and trout tails all producing fish. Crank baits and kastmasters are also producing fish. Fly fisherman are averaging 10-20 fish a day using bead head midges and red copper johns in the same areas.
Big trout of the SEASON was caught by Parker Wright of Laguna Niguel with a 14lb 'tailwalker' that hit a Trout King camo trout worm on a drop shot rig in Zone 2 off the shoreline. David Ullery of Los Alamitos weighed in a 10lb 09oz 'tailwalker' that hit a fire tiger kastmaster in the flats off a boat. 16 trout in the 5lb to 8lb trout were brought up to the scales last week.
BASS:Bass in the 2lb to 4lb class have been reported by fishermen throwing trout pattern crank baits in the flats. Even the fly fishermen have reported bass hitting their bead head midges!
Channel Catfish:No catfish reported last week.
