    Report: Went up to Pardee or a little un.(sorry I missed you "Hippie Mark" on sat. had to many Honey do's. Anyway,started out with a senko,(blue gill) and immediately got the big ish o the day, a very hot 5.03 largemouth. Next cast to a 3.3 largemouth. Man, it don't get any better than this. Missed a ew on a long point throwing top water. Went to an island nearby and got a nice 1.6 smallie. Let the area and went to another island in the main lake.Caught two 2.0 clones,largemouths dropshotting a small reaper. Went to another long point and to a 2.5 largemouth or a nice 14 pound limit by 8:30 am. Missed several more dropshotting during the morning, ended up boating seven ish. O the water by noon.

    Report: My dad & I started ishing about 6:30 am, by 7:00 he already had 3 in the boat. All about 14 inches. In total we caught about 12 large mouth bass on Sat. Biggest that day were 17", 16.5" & 16" in length. Sunday was about the same with our biggest being 18''. This is a great lake or bass ishn, I just hope it doesn't get over crowded.
    City: Elk Grove

    Tips: We were using Carolina rigged "green weenie" worms all day. Bass were sitting at the dropos anywhere rom 5 - 20" deep. Cast into shore and slowly drag worm along bottom until it drops o the ledge. Bass normally hit during the drop and they were hitting hard, no playing with the worm. FISH ON!

Great day orquality but not quantity, only 5 bass but all good ishFish were on points close to spawning areas. Had to beNEAR DEEP water, 25t plus. Got my irst ish on a dropshotrig, but can't say that is was skill, she had it beore ithit bottom. All ish, including trout were cought on tubebait, Basspros amber black and green lake, using a 1/8 oz,dart head but have the dart about 3/8 in. back rom the head o the tube.

Ended up catching 10 ish,to 3 lbs., mostly on points in the main lake and river.Bite was over at 10am.Pulled out at 12 noon and had a nice lunch at the coee shop.

    Tips: Some days the top water bite don't exist. the ish were shallow, as when the sun came up we could see them. 20' visibilty is the reason or the micro weenies and light line.

    Report: The clear water makes it tough or Delta guys. Make long casts to the points. Most o our ish came on secondary points, mostly up the river arm.Caught mostly smallies, with a ew spots and largemouth.Had a great time on a beautiul lake. No skiers, no jet skis, ew bass ishermen.3.5 and 3.0 largemouth. 2.5 and (2)1.5 smallies, were the best. Love looking down 20t in the water and watching the ish do its 'dang, I'm hooked' dance. Airborn smallies, strong as an ox.
    City: San Mateo

    Tips: Smallies came on 4" Keeper worms, green weenie with green and red lakes. 6 pound test line a must.Largemouth got nabbed on Senko #284 which looks just like the crawdads.
