We do believe it was the last hoorah before school starts cuz boy was it busy - there were people everywhere and we thank you for picking Lake Sabrina as your last hoorah place. The dam - packed. The boats - all out. The weather - awesome. The Café - the happening place. The catching - OUTSTANDING.

Just about any way you wanted to fish was working. NightCrawlers, PowerBait and PowerWorms were the hot ticket at the Inlets. Flashers and a NightCrawler, or just a WoolyBugger or just a NightCrawler worked for those that like to cruise the Lake. Simply tossing a worm and drifting over the rock piles picked up some nice limits. NightCrawlers or PowerBait for those that like to keep their feet on firm ground (you may also want to try a bubble and a fly) - come on in and ask!

Jessica, Janai and Marah from Menifee were at the Lake for their last hoorahs and caught dinner for the family while Dad Uyeda, Wildon and Quinlan Uyeda of Grananda Hills were making summer time fishing memories before heading back to school.

All the campgrounds in the Bishop Creek Canyon are still open. The only campground to take reservations is Four Jeffery (www.reserveamerica.com and enter Four Jeffrey) all others are first come first serve. There is a full hook-up campground also on the South Lake road, Creekside RV Park. Remember to take it easy on all the mountain roads, the deer are out in the mornings and evenings and there's lots of hikers out there - can't stress this enough!

A bit warmer this coming week - highs in the mid-70's with lows in the low 50's - doesn't get better than that! 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. REMEMBER THAT JACKET - IT TENDS TO BE BETWEEN 25 AND 30 DEGREES COOLER AT THE LAKE.

Our back country protectors are still hard at work protecting that back country - what might those back country protectors be - the skeeter, of course - they're still around - hopefully only for a tad bit longer, but remember when applying bug juice, sunscreen, SANITIZER or any other FU-FU juice, WASH YOUR HANDS! The juice you apply will taint your tackle and bait. You know it tastes yucky, the fish think it tastes yucky, too, although have you ever tasted PowerBait or Worms - to each their own.

We've still making HOMEMADE vanilla ice-cream to go with our HOMEMADE pie - we also have sodas, beer, wine, coffee, tea and hot cocoa during our regular store hours!

Rick and I will be out of town next weekend - so look for the fishing report on Monday!

Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
