Even though we didn’t see as many trout catches this week, the quality is still amazing.  At the end of last week Don & Dana Feryance ended their camping trip with a huge 5 lb. Rainbow and sent us a photo via their i phone.

Vic & Norm from Lincoln topped the charts this week with their gigantic 6 lb. 12 oz. trout along with a 3 lb. 12 oz. trout, trolling a broken back Rapala.

Scott Romaine from Menifee used chunky cheese PowerBait near the dam and hooked onto a 5 lb. 12 oz. Rainbow as well.  Kindra Crosthwaite from Pleasant Grove caught her 5 lb. 4 oz. Bow when trolling a Rapala on the east side.

Matthew Clayton of Yuba City appeared with a stringer of 20 Crappie, which he caught near the boat dock on mini jigs he said.

Patrick Farley from Discovery Bay lands a limit of trout early in the day on rainbow PowerBait by the dam.  Joe Jones from Granite Bay caught a nice assortment (bass, crappie & trout) in Elmer’s Cove from his campsite, using worms for bait.

Leilani Fiorenti & Norieta Kawewichi caught a stringer of trout in Elmer’s Cove using PowerBait.  Pete Henderson & Bob Boyer fished across the lake trolling a Wedding Ring Spinner and a worm and took home 9 trout!
