      Report: This last spring my buddy and I were ishing right as the park was about to close. ON a bed was a monster. My buddy stuck her on a monster tube. Landed it and weighed it on my scale at 15.2 lbs. No joke. Ran to the ranger to tell him about the new lake record and he made us let it go and wrote us a ticket or being in the park ater hrs. what an asshole!
      City: Laayette

      Tips: Many don't know about the monsters in this lake. I guarantee there is a world record in this lake. I have seen bass up to twenty at least. No joke

      Report: went out or the day with my boat, saw a guy come in with a 16 pound trout and just this saturday the new lake record was caught an 18 pound 9 oz rainbow!!!!!. he caught it on a tube bait that you use or bass and the other guy caught the 16 pounder on a crankbait. this lake is ull o monster trout this year and most o them are being caught on rat l traps and crankbaits and rapalas so i the bass arent biting go or trout!!!!. but i ished every little inch o the shore rom my boat and saw a huge number o monster bass in the shallows getting ready or the spawn. i hooked one around 1:00 on my secret bait which works very well!!!. then i took my boat back to the east cove and lipped some tules and pulled in a solid 2 pound bass on my secret bait, i'm going to be out on the water this saturday and sunday so i'll report back then too.
      City: Moraga

      Tips: small plastic worms and anything with a subtle all.p.s. please catch and release all bass especially during the spawn and do your best not to catch bass that are spawning or sitting in nests!!!!! thank you and good luck

      Report: My riend Nick and I went to laayette on sunday2/18. We ished the 3rd dock in the east cove with chartreuse powerbait. We each caught and released three trout each. We then moved to Harrys cove but caught nothing. We let at 10:30. P.S What the hell was the guy whoposted beore me talking about? Live bait other than night crawlers are illegal at Laayette and most other bay area lakes.

      Report: Saw about 8 giant bass rom like 5-10lbs. These are beasts, put every lure right on their nose. Nothing. Does anybody know how to catch these ish. This is the 5th consecutive time at the lake i have seen a crusing ish exceeding 5lbs with no luck. Any help catching these monsters would be appreciated. Thanks.

      Tips: The only thing I can think o is make long casts and make natural presentation even when you see the ish, but that isn't working or me. And polorized sunglasses or better viewing.

      Report: Happened to be driving 17 today so I detoured over to the Lake. Got excited about seeing so much water in it. Hopes were quickly dashed once I got there. Big red signs all over the place "Closed to ALL watercraft to prevent Quagga Mussel infestation."

      Report: that boat ramp is closed!? jeeeeeeebus. i was going to take my boat out tomorrow morning too. havent takin it out in almost a month and a half... guess i shoulda when i coulda. hmmm. looks like im going somehwere else tomorrow.

      went out to the west side today, down the gated trail right south of 17/bear creek overpass (of the BIG dirt lot area), and was just there to kill some time before i saw the parents. to my surprise, i pulled in a nice 2.5lb LMB on a smoke rocketshad. gave up shit for a fight, but it was my first fish in a couple months, so gave me a smile.

      oh, for jeff or whoever it was, as my knowledge of LMB vs SMB goes, the LMB's jaw extends a little past it's eyeball, and unless it was a mutant LMB, the jaw did not extend past. however, since i do not have a picture of the fish in question, i cannot cross-reference my data. i will, however, be more meticulous in my observations so i can tell w/o a doubt.
      also hey, if anyone who trolls here has any good color combos that seem to be productive for winter, let me know. during late summer/ mid fall it was my sep's watermelon dodger and my good ol' lucky (59 fish and counting) pure silver kastmaster. i was pullin up to 6 fish a day off of that setup. then, LITERALLY one day, it stopped workin altogether.
      i switched over to just a small gold kastmaster, and, as god and my fishin buddy as witness, i pulled in a MONSTER catfish (YES TROLLING) that got about 3-4 from the boat, took one look at my ugly face, and stole my kastmaster with a single turn. felt like i was pulling up a tree stump, the damn thing was AT LEAST three feet long, and that is including the displacement in the water and my guesstimation. damn thing was huge. a catfish... TROLLING! unheard of!

      Tips: dont lose hope like me. just cuz u cant see them, doesnt mean they are not there.
      i dropshot'd a senko almost all of the east back off my boat, from shore to deep water, to no avail. i am, however, not a master of the drop shot.

      Report: there are many steep drop offs. especially in the cove areas. depth goes up to around 65 feet (according to my cheap depth finder) look out for the rowing crew though :) the cove by the docks has been killer for trout fishing lately!

      Tips: rowing crew may unintentially nearly sink ya. I will send professional complaints to the addresses previously listed. thanks!

      Report: the launch ramp gate is open. (for just a couple weeks now). i'm sure the paystation is up too - I use the yearly santa clara permit, so i wouldn't know. the permits a good idea if you get to fish much. it's $50 for the year - fees add up without it.
