The temps in the morning felt a bit cooler (although the thermometer says it was 53), but no nip in the air yet. Fishing this week remained good. Lots of people at the cleaning table Saturday morning before 9:30am. Pretty much the same things are working - PowerBait, NightCrawlers, Salmon Eggs and Jigs back at all the inlets. Using flashers and a NightCrawler or the Red/Gold Thomas Buoyant, olive WoolyBuggers or just a swivel (most important when trolling), split-shot and NightCrawlers is what's working on the troll. Drift by the rock piles or over the shoreline between the two natural lakes with a NightCrawlers or PowerBait. Those sitting on shore try NightCrawlers or PowerBait.

Those in the know this week were Ziggy Gonzalez from North Hollywood using his own Proto-type worm to catch a 3-1/2 pound Alper while Dan Lawson from Carson City used a Red & Gold Thomas Buoyant to land a 4-1/2 pound Alper. Anna Brandt of Riverside caught dinner for the family with her limit using NightCrawlers. The Department of Fish and Game stocked the lake on Monday with a very nice load of fish. Weather at the Lake continues to be spectacular with the temps in the 80s for the highs and in the low 50s for the lows. You can check www.weather.gov and enter Aspendell, CA on the site and it will give you a fairly good hint at the weather or check in with Howard at www.MammothWeather.com.
