Delta fishing around Thanksgiving

Thinking about a Delta trip around Thanksgiving.. How’s the bite during this time? I’ve only been to the delta once and it was in early August, will the bite be totally different then ?

Re: First Clear lake Trip.

September/October can be a pretty good time to fish Clear Lake. This time is usually a heavy time for tournaments. Not that the rest of the year isn’t. Having said all of this there’s a high degree of likelihood you’ll have no place to launch a boat due to low water conditions. Several public ramps...
