    Report: The bass where biting quite good today. I landed 4 - 3+lb ish and one 5.5 lb ish. Saw some blue gill action also or the kids. Basically had a great day.
    City: San Ramon

    Tips: Get there in the early morning beore the jet skis and speed boats arrive. 4-5 am is a good time to start then you get some good uninterupted ishing in the main lake. I like to use dark purple and blue rubber worms with the twisty tails. Slip sinker on the nose 1/4 oz. let it drop in at the shore line and slowly jig it in to the boat.

    Report: Pulled an all nighter Saturday and my partner and I landed 15-20 ish. Started out with top water baits at dusk with ish to 3#, switched to blades ater dark with ish to 2#, then jigs late night. My partner landed a 5.5# with a jig. We caught many small ish and missed several keepers on top water and in the snaggs.
    City: Rohnert Park

    Tips: The patterns seemed to change as the night progressed so you'll need to change as the bites stop. Dark colors at night: black/red, black/blue.

    Report: Great day at Lake Sonoma. The luke bite was strong all day. The main body o water is your best bet. They are easting trying to atten up beore the hot summer months ahead. The morning bite came on the white pepper color, and then changed to the olive green color. Our big ish o the day wsa about 5 lbs. It ws a consistant bite all day and the ish where very aggresive. We boated 33 ish and my buddy missed al least 15. It was a very nice day, even with all the boaters. Tip: Go during the week much less crowded. Good luck! Dont catch'em all.
