Every list of lakes that I have seen regarding Fishing Hot Spots does not include many of the waters I frequent, i.e. Don Pedro, McClure, Tulloch, New Hogan, etc. Has something change in that regard?
I was hoping for a lead on a chip that was more inclusive. RK

Hogan is $4.
MikeD is correct - Melones is FREE.
I believe that Don Pedro is now $12.
McClure is, indeed, $12.
