The fishing has picked up a little with the cooler weather. This time of year is when the browns and the mac's start biting more. Inflate crawlers or powerbait by the dam has been most productive for shore anglers. trollers have been using small flashers and a crawler  12" behind the blades. Black and gold  F5 or F7 Raplas have been productive. I would start at a slower troll at 2 mph and then move up to 3 or 4 mph. The Alpine County Fish Commission is scheduled to plant the lake with nice sized rainbow trout.


Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
