STRIPER

The striper bite picked up this week! Anglers are catching striper between 5-10 pounds! The best time to fish for striper is the week of a trout stock. Trolling Swim baits in the morning work best. When shad and trout are breaking the surface, it's best to use lures that mimic them for top water boils.

PANFISH

Anglers are catching few panfish a pound and under. Night crawlers and mealworms work best.


TROUT Anglers are catching many trout between 4-9pounds! Powerbait, kasmasters and mini jigs work best for trout. Mike Morton and daughter Haley Morton (age 11) of Hemet caught two nice trout using mini jigs off shoreline. Their trout weighed 6.71 pounds and 8.6 pounds!
