Report: Fished Sunday rom 2-5 and got one about 10" out o the irst pond on a purple magic worm, and went back monday rom 2-6:30 and stuck 2 more, one about 10" and one about 14" out o the same pond on the same bait. All o the ish came in around 4:30, I think they bite better with low light conditions, but this was the irst time I ished this lake so maybe I have yet to ind a secret, or at least a spot that holds better ish!

Report: Check out the ollowing site or more ino on Shadow Clis:http://www.ebparks.org/ish/angledge.htm#ishShadow Clis has one main lake with 3 or 4 (?) back lakes. The main lake is stocked with catish and trout. There are bass in there too. The back lakes contain primarily bass. From what I heard, the good bass ishing are in these back lakes. It's worth a trip or you. I you get skunked, try the trout pond. It's like $5 per trout (ugh, ripo!).
City: DublinTips: I heard Zoom baits and Zara spooks are key lures in the back lakes. Power bait in the main lake or trout.

Report: Just landed a 5 pounder and saw the two 18 pounders. They were actually more then 18. As or getting crawdads, go early in the morning with a crawdad trap and bacon. The lake is loaded with them. I not go to the back lakes and hide a trap over night. back lakes are also loaded with crawdads. Worm has been the best bait with a loat a bubble bobber. Fill it hal way and leave about two eet rom the bobber. This keeps you above the stu on the bottom. Good luck!!!
