      Report: Ive been here a lot of times, but Ive never been into the ponds. Does anyone know if there are any transitions or channels? And do those poles mean that its deep back there?

      Tips: laugh after a good (or bad) day of fishing

      Water Temp: cold

      Water Clarity: Stained (2-4 foot visibility)

      Report: The wind finaly slowed enough to get out today and I floated the back ponds. Started out on the first one (the dog pond) and did pretty good drop shoting 20-25 ft. I didnt think people would still let there dogs jump in that freezing a@# water. I had a 3 mil neo on and shill could feel it. I met some other floaters and they said it was a tough bite. They were pretty cool and told me how to get to the back pond (tule island) so I gave that a shot and only got one small bass but the area looks great. I will be back for sure.

      Report: There are two ponds in the back with bass, the arroyo and the small island pond. Drive all the way to the end of the parking lot. Walk up the hill. The first one you see is the arroyo. Walk a little further down the path and you will see the other pond. They are both good size ponds with tons of bass.

      Tips: get a float tube to fish the ponds. shore access is limited for both ponds.

      Report: I love this place. It would be a shame to see it go down hill because of people not releasing there fish. To all you ppl who keep your bass, there are stocked trout in the main lake for you to keep and eat. Stay away from the bass in the small ponds!

      Report: Im gonna try the back ponds tomorrow. I see that you guys are getting skunked. Nothing like getting skunked. What do you guys usually use? I always have tons of success with brush hogs and senkos in the arroyo. Most of the bass I catch are in the weeds. Nothing really near the trees or bushes. However, the small island pond is a whole different story. I usually try using a crankbait as slow as can near the tulles at the end of the pond. Even though there are tons of weeds over there, I still manage to catch a lot on a crankbait. Also, I throw texas rigged brush hogs(I prefer pumpkin seed & watermelon candy), senko's and if you want to catch a real big one the yum watermelon zallamanders are the way to go. I dont go to shadow cliffs a whole lot but when I do, I have pretty darn good success.

      Report: Fished the back ponds last weekend for 15 fish in 2 days. I caught one fish that I've never seen before. It was about 17 inches long and had a pretty large mouth with tiny sharp teeth. It's body was white and had very big scales. It had a long and slender body. What the hell was it?

      Report: Zack, read the old reports and you'll get a clue. There's tons of great cover in the two ponds. Walk on the dirt road next to the parking in the far end of the parking lot and the first pond you see is the arroyo. Then walk farther on the path and you'll see the Small Island pond. Fishing is always good here.

      Tips: Watermelon Candy Baby Brush hogs work best.

      Report: I fished about a week ago. Caught 6 bass and three of them were around 3 pounds each. All of the bigger fished were caught on a texas rigged watermelon zalamander. Missed a lot of fish too, including a big one that snapped my 16 pound test line. Caught the rest of the fish on brush hogs and a 3x strike king worm. Yea those dogs are annoying. They gotta do something about those dogs jumping in the water and messin up the fishing. It seems like every time I go fishing here, there's dog's barking and swimming in the water.
      City: Morgan Hill

      Tips: I say the arroyo is just as good as the small island pond right now. I recommend the watermelon color YUM Zalamander if you want to catch bigger fish. I caught tons of big fish on that bait including a 10 and 7 pounder in the same day. Anyways

      Report: I went to the lake a week or so ago. It was nice to get back out on the water. I tried a 1/8 pumpkin jig with no hits. Missed on a black senko. Caught a couple on motoroil senkos each maybe 2-2.5lbs. A little slow, but fishing is fun. I really need a float or a boat. I really want to fill a limit or catch one of those lunkers!

      Tips: I wish the fish were really active close to the shore! Good luck
