The water level is still up and the fishing has been good for shore and boaters. The CDFW planted the lake recently with catchable rainbow trout. Ania Nawara from Caples Lake caught a nice rainbow from the shore using a white Rooster Tail spinner. Another angler caught a nice 14.5 lb mackinaw while trolling. The EID day use area and launch is open at 6AM each morning. The Caple Lake Resort is open for boat launching as well, I would advise calling for available times. They also have fishing boat and kayak rentals available. For more information, stop by the Caples Lake Resort.

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.
