Water Temp: 75
Water Clarity: Clear (4+ foot visibility)
Report: The bass where biting quite good today. I landed 4 - 3+lb ish and one 5.5 lb ish. Saw some blue gill action also or the kids. Basically had a great day.
City: San RamonTips: Get there in the early morning beore the jet skis and speed boats arrive. 4-5 am is a good time to start then you get some good uninterupted ishing in the main lake. I like to use dark purple and blue rubber worms with the twisty tails. Slip sinker on the nose 1/4 oz. let it drop in at the shore line and slowly jig it in to the boat.

Report: Pulled an all nighter Saturday and my partner and I landed 15-20 ish. Started out with top water baits at dusk with ish to 3#, switched to blades ater dark with ish to 2#, then jigs late night. My partner landed a 5.5# with a jig. We caught many small ish and missed several keepers on top water and in the snaggs.
City: Rohnert ParkTips: The patterns seemed to change as the night progressed so you'll need to change as the bites stop. Dark colors at night: black/red, black/blue.

Report: Great day at Lake Sonoma. The luke bite was strong all day. The main body o water is your best bet. They are easting trying to atten up beore the hot summer months ahead. The morning bite came on the white pepper color, and then changed to the olive green color. Our big ish o the day wsa about 5 lbs. It ws a consistant bite all day and the ish where very aggresive. We boated 33 ish and my buddy missed al least 15. It was a very nice day, even with all the boaters. Tip: Go during the week much less crowded. Good luck! Dont catch'em all.

Spring Lake

Water Clarity: Muddy (0-2 foot visibility)
Report: Yo I come on here to see how the fishing is at the lake. I've fished this lake for the last 30 years and do great every year. It's nice for me to be able to come on here and see the people like fatchicks takes the time to let the rest of us know how the fishing is. If you want to help the lake then find a way to get them to make it illegal to take fish during the spawn. Instead we get a look of Asians that come with live bait and keep every keeper sizes fish they caught. And trust me I have no problem with anyone keeping fish but lets wait till after the spawn. Anyways FATCHICKS, thank you for all the help
