    Water Temp: 66-69

    Water Clarity: Clear (4+ foot visibility)

    Report: Started fishn on the east side around 9am on a beautiful windless day. Very few birds and no surface activity. The 'mouth' and I fish for about 2hrs and boated about 10 fish with only one keeper in 15 to 20' drop shottn..Went across and fished big island and spent the rest of the day on that side of the lake as there was more surface activity and more fish on the graph. We ended the day with about 30 fish of which half were dinks. Most of the fish came on drop shotn in 15-28' with a few on cranks. Nothing big, largest was just under 2#, but it was a great day to be out.
    City: orinda

    Tips: did not see nor graph any bait on the east side, nor did any of our fish spit up any. On the west side it was just the opposite. We graphed big balls at 30' and there were big balls on the surface as well, i.e. bait everywhere. All of these fish were spitn up enough bait to start a chum line. Graphed alot of fish, but caught only about one persent of them; they are very full and finnicky...lotsa of surface feeding trout also..well hope this info helps...
