      Report: Fishing was slow in the early morning. As it warmed up so did the ishing.

I caught 12 ish up totwo o'clock. Work the bait slow and wait or pressure, I never elt a bite, set the hook with weight.

      Water Clarity: Muddy (0-2 foot visibility)

      Report: Bonneau, I have also had good luck on senkos- black & red, and green & black colors. The darker color crank baits are great aroud the steep bank on the road side. This place is great when the water is low. You can see all of the structure this place has. There is are good size cove on the other side that has a huge tree that comes out only when the water is low-(obviously).
      The california rig is great too, try 6" robo worms with about a 18 inch tag line.

      Report: I don't mean to make this a chat room, but I am planning on tubing Guadalupe again this weekend, and I am hoping some old timers out there have some tips. Is the bank furthest from the road better than the steep bank closest to the road? I have heard that brown crank baits really nail them here, but I am primarily a plastic lure fisherman. Mick, thanks for the tip. I'll be there late summer. Look for two fools in Outcast tubes.
      Thanks in advance!

      Report: Just wait until later in the summer for the crank bait bite. Go along those steep banks in your float tube and you will catch bass all day.

      Water Temp: lo 60's

      Water Clarity: Clear (4+ foot visibility)

      Report: First time with my kickboat; caught a handul o keepers pitching a craw-pattern reaper into the shallows (brush-covered & otherwise). Also caught my FIRST FISH EVER on a weightless sot jerkbait (an Angler's Choice 4-incher, smoke w/chartreuse tail). Bout time! I had only caught 'em via a Carolina Rig, previously! Ran across some real 'bassy' cover as I worked my way along the bank, but my presentation skills (or lack thereo) oten spoiled what might have been a 'sure-thing' -- I **KNOW** there had to be something in there, or VERY close by! Not much pressure at this lake, & I've heard o some nice ish being caught here. Had a hell o a time getting my kickboat up that steep hillside, though! (Not to mention it was nearly dark -- another nice thing about this lake: not too heavily patrolled!). Oops! I didn't say that!
      City: San Jose

      Tips: Good lip/pitchable cover along the roadside banks. On the opposite side, not as much cover, but it's even less travelled, so more open-water tactics would probably be real eective (split-shot rigs, spinnerbaits, cranks, sot jerkbaits, etc.). Bank ishing: not many places to choose rom in this high-water season.
