      Report: Fished april 1st. The day after I got home from Lake Shasta. My best day in about 2 months. Best 5 went 52 pounds on that stupid bread scale at the dock. I had 7 swimbait fish. biggest 2 were 14 # and 13#. My brother Paul fished the same day in the jet boat and had 40# for his best 5, all swim bait fish. Fishing is really really good. The worm bite is wide open, and fish are all over beds. Look at my website for pics tonight from this weekend, shaunsguideservice.com
      good luck and have fun!

      Report: got on the water around 7:30 am and went directly to the cove just to the let o the sunken island. saw a large boil way back in the cove around the grass line. Threw a POP-R in a silver color right into that same spot, and boom!!! that ish just killed my lure. ended up being an 8 pounder. caught my second ish on the lats way to the west end o the lake. was using a small rapala that looked like a gold shad. that one was a hog at just over 10 pounds. all in all, it was a good day on the lake!

      Report: I agree with the last report. This lake sucks for bass. The boys that work there don't know anything about fishing and aren't helpful. The boats suck and run out of battery life by the time you travel to the good spots. Stick to Del Valle, Delta, Etc.

      Report: Chabot has to be the worse bass fishing lake in the Bay Area. I've fished it over 10 times now in the past 4 years with only 3 bites and two fish. Both fish were small at 1 1/2 pounds each. And each time I see a fellow Bass fisherman, they too are skunked. Anyways I went last weekend throwing the usual (senkos, jigs, luckycraft's, etc.). I fished all over without a bite, and without seeing any bank fish. And I know my lack of success is not due to my lure selection or presentation since I've caught plenty of bass at lakes with similar structure on the same lures. I'm giving up on this lake. Props to all you guys that have caught fish at chabot as I've seen in pictures. The pictures of lunkers on this site are what have been making me try over and over again. Anyways good luck to all you die hard Chabot fisherman, maybe there is some sort of secret that I don't know about.

      Report: "The more the better but when you have helpers dumping trees killing 13lb bass it only makes me wonder just why we are trying to establish a better habitat for them" what the hell do you mean? this makes no sense. Establishing better habitat does help out the fishing at chabot, maybe not immediately but later on down the road.

      Report: Chabot is a tough lake, but if you fish it hard and fish the right places you will catch some fish. I like to fish the lake from the burner to the alder pt. area this time of year. If you just want to catch fish, split shottig 4" worms will work if you fish them very thoroughly around any drop offs or weed beds. For larger fish, I tend to throw 1/2 oz. jigs with brush hog trailers. Castaic trout and M.S. Slammers will also work, but there is a short window of opportunity with those baits. The fish seem to be spawning late this year, so if you walk the bank in that area, you just might come across big momma.

      Tips: Fish slow, thorougly, and often. Youll probably only catch one or two bass every two or three outings, but the ones you do catch are usually nice. Keep on fishin' and the persistence will pay off, sooner or later.

      Report: To the person who submitted the report as any: You've had 10+ bass days? I havn't even caught 10 bass at chabot out of probably 30 trips. The bass I have caught have been nice healthy fat bass however. What do you reccommend using and what side of the lake do you concentrate on? I'd sure like to have a successful day for a change. I'd really appreciate any help, I just can't figure out bass fishing at Chabot.

      Tips: between coots and alder there are some deep ledges that still produce well dropshot 3 inch worms slow and try adiing a rattle also use sent kickin bass has always done well for me and look for other bass fisherman there is a group of locals who dont talk about were they fish but keep an eye out they ussually konw were there at
