Headed to oroville next weekend. Any word on lake level and water clarity? Any fish getting caught?

Full Pool is at 728. lake is 810 and rising http://oroville.lakesonline.com/Level/ Bass Union is on that lake all the time and may be able to help dial you into water color - I would guess the main lake is going to by Clearer then the arms

It's been a few week's since I've been on Lake Oroville, but there is a Norcal 90 tournament this weekend, I will have plenty of days on the water before then and I will report back. Thanks!

Knock em dead Bass Union, your content and access to anglers is outstanding and appreciated! Hope you whack em this weekend!

Good luck to you boys

I just go by the Dept of Water Resources site, which shows it at 65% of full pool. Still not recovered from the mighty spillway crash. What's important to you is the lake is rising, 21k cfs in vs 5k going out. Turns the whole fish biomass towards the banks, provided it's not rising TOO fast...
