Talked to my best friend Ryan today and he told me that he was next to a guy at Castaic yesterday who caught a 35 lb striper. Thats huge.

Ski Arm actually....I'm a bass guy first and foremost, so no soaking cut bait or anything like that...got 'em all on reaction baits.....Bring lots of extra treble hooks......Easy limits

In less than 30' of water .... Try picking up an LV500 in Shad or a cheap Rattle-Trap ...and 5-7 flutter it off the bottom to back down.

A bottom Stripper - is a bottom Striper - is a Striper.

By chance - Does anyone know how fast the water level is currenty dropping at Lake Castaic ? -- and how the bass bite is currrenly by chance ??

We have a group of 6 teen's headed down there for Memorial Weekend to fish their State tourney on the 24th. Any updated tips for Lodging and Lake Conditions would be greatly appreciated to give them.

Cheers,
Dan

Dan,
Here is a link you can use to monitor the water level at Castaic.

I found this link that shows daily water levels.
If you type in cas, the code for Castaic, it shows the last month's water levels, and, if you go down to the bottom of the page and click on Real time CAS data, it will give you hour by hour levels, up to the last hour.

You can track Pyramid by typing in pym, too.

I didn't call you a bouy line bait soaker, just was wondering where and how you got them to bite.
