      Water Clarity: Clear (4+ foot visibility)

      Report: I got to Calero around 9:30 am on Wednesday and tubed a couple of the rocky points on the south side of the lake. Splitshot a purple Power worm and didn't get a strike . Made my way toward the second point and the water was a little deeper there.In 19 feet of water I switched to a football head jig with a junebug Yamamoto spidergrub. On the first cast I thought I snagged the bottom, but it turned out to be a 2 lber. proceeded to catch three more in the next ten minutes( all around 2 lbs ) After that...not much else.
      City: santa clara

      Tips: fish the later afternoon- early evening. The fish are really digging the topwater bite. Moss Frogs, flukes, weightless plastics all produce out here.

      Report: Took my best friend from Fresno and my Dad out this past Monday for a little Delta trip. Very memorable day! We got on a good blade, crank bite at low tide on major moss flats. Bass had all pulled out and were balled up on the edges of the moss ripe for the picking. My buddy nails the first fish, a 2.5#, on a blade, and in the next hour, all hell breaks loose! His next bass is a 10# (his first ever!), then a couple 2-2.5#'s, and just for fun, another 3.5#. I FINALLY get into the act with a 2#, 3#, and a 6# on a Rat-L-Trap. My Dad then sticks a 2.5# and dumps a 5+#, all on a blade. Bite was over by about 10:00am, and we went to flippin' Zippers, jigs and Brush Hogs. I picked up another 2.5#, and we managed a few more small keepers. Best seven would have gone close to 30#. Great day, just wish I'd have been in a tournament!
      City: Sacramento

      Tips: Check those big moss flats with dirty water at low tide! They sure paid off for us!

      Report: Fished a club tournament Saturday out of Laurentzens (Wished I could have been at the Pro/Teen). Bite was tough, could only manage 4 keepers with one good fish that weighed 5.27. The 5+ came on a Chartruse Snag Proof frog. He was on a point that had small patches of grass on it and was only in 2' of water. Most fish seem to be in areas with current, weeds, and either tulies or wood.
      City: Brentwood

      Tips: Try points with current. I flipped most fish on black/red plastic. If weather heats back up and wind dies down try the topwater bite.
