My partner and I boated several small ish up to 1lb. on 4" plastics, color didn't seem to matter, both largemouth and spots.Fish were in 20-30' range. Moved to point across rom dam to the east and picked up a ew more decent ones. Then moved to area near the spillway and picked up 6-7 more late aternoon again on 4" plastics and dropshotting 8-15', largest ish was 2.2lb. largemouth. Looking orward to warmer weather and more active ish as the ish move up

Report: Theres a point directly across rom the north end o the dam. I you'll cast close towards the shore and let your rig all you'll be in some kind o obstruction (weeds). It is easy to pull your rig through. Once the resistance is gone ish slowly, even allowing you rig to lay still on occasion, because ater your through is where I caught my biggest ish o the day last time I was out. I believe that may be the best place at this time on Kaweah.
City: VisaliaTips: Lilac worm with black and red lakes is always good at Kaweah.
