      Report: think what you will just dont think it on the reports page, it is funny that you think selmac is a bad lake not only that you think its a turd witch i find absolutely absurd. I will be the first to say Selmac is EASILY without a doubt, no room for argument one of the best if not THE best bass fishery in southern oregon. sure its pressured and could use just a bit of management but its better than the other local lakes by a longshot, why you cant catch fish there is unclear to me i have got numerous over 5-lb largemouth out of there this year so far and more to come. sure it gets tough but where doesnt i got 2nd at the last howard tourny with 5.-- lbs the only person to get a limit both days to top it off, its the instant cold snap turning them off;......but as i said earlier think what you want, im glad to hear the "bad" news. selmac is a killer lake i love it and hope it doesnt end up like out other lakes.--- but in this report there will actually be up to date experience, fished selmac last week got a lot of fish not much overall size got a 2.5 on a swimbait early and a few more to follow it was very windy that day and got fish on all sorts of baits from senkos to swimbaits, on top of that all summer this lake has produced time and time again big bass ever since late march.
      City: central point

      Tips: some may not like it i say good i let the days on the water speak for themselves a 5 fish 1 man 23-lb post spawn limit at a supposed "TURD" lake,LOL....lets end it and get to more on the water experience,as far as im concerned toho etc... should not EVER be brought up in an oregon forum let alone compared to a local ORE, lake you have got to be kidding me- dont mean to go on a rant but c'mon

Moved to the main body picked up 4LM in a ditch nothing too big around 1 1/2LB. all came on a brush hog missed several others had to realy feed them the bait. Moved north and found some SM holding on rock walls picked up 6 most under sized one did go 2LBS. Checked out some weed lines and finaly picked up a topwater fish going 4 plus on a spook. Over all not bad for this time of year only fished from 7-12.

      Tips: All the fish were on balls of bait so find the bait find the fish. Most of the bait is holding in the 30-40ft range in the ditches and creeks.

      Report: .......
      August 20th-27th..........

      This last week was off and on, some days the fish were willing to bite and then some days it was tough to get a limit.

      I fished mostly in the south but I did spend some time up north. Our best fish were caught on the Ganesh Bug fished shallow, and also caught some nice ones on swimbaits and top water.

      There was much less algae this week, some cooler nights and wind helped to break it up.
      City: Clear Lake

      Tips: In the south try fishing deep with jigs and drop shots, up north try frogs or plastics. Try football jigs and drop shots
      in the rocks close to breaks or on the deeper side of the ledge.
      Fishing top water and frogs will work but you might have to cover allot of water and run around during the day. Timing is critical so recheck your spots during the day to see when the bite is the best.

      Have Fun ! .......steveperkinsfishing.com

      Report: a surprisingly good day considering they poisoned the lake again last week to kill the weeds. There were still quite a few weeds, and the poison didn't do a thing to the coontail grass. Dan got 2 good ones right off the bat on a dark buzzbait, and that was all she wrote for him, although he did lose two on a dark cb later. I Caught most of mine on a black and red cb. 2 that were #5 each, a #4, and a couple of three's. The big fish ate a hardnose in a foot of water, and it weighed over #7.

      Tips: Darker colors seem to be the ticket today which was strange seeing how it was overcast most of the day.

      Report: What a windy, cold and wet morning for the anglers of Basin Bassmasters. The day started out dark and wet, dark clouds. I headed over to my first shot with my partner Bonner Veasman. He was using a Buzz bait and boated our first five, let them take it before you set the hook.
      One came on a chatter bait. I then replaced three with a black/blue Senko off rocks in 3-8 ft. Stay with the tide moving. Later we moved into Sicamore and called out three more. At the weigh in we had a bag of 13.25 lbs and the winners bag was 15.50 lbs with a 8.12 lb kicker that came off a sped trap craw color.

      Tips: spinner baits, chatter baits, crankin and Senkos.

      Report: Fished for 2 1/2 days last weekend. Caught and released over 50 bass both largemouth and spots. Biggest was just under 5lbs and took several in the 3-4bls class. The big fish were caught early and late on top water (PopR). The rest were caught on either shallow crank or drop shot in 1 to 5ft of water in grass lines. Great fishing. WX was very cool with a front approaching so the bite was off the hook
      City: Foster City

      Tips: Chug bait or prop bait top water early and late evening around grass edges. Fish very shallow crank baits and 4" worm drop shot in the weeds.

      Report: Fished Friday. Lazy start about 8am. Caught 2 fish in 18-20 ft on carolina rig baby brush hogs. Moved to a rock dock area and caught 2 more in 12 to 16 feet (lots of bait in the water). At 11:30 moved in and threw frog on mats around rocks and docks. Caught 4lber on frog> no other blow ups. tossed my drop shot in shade of dock and caught 1 more. 6 fish from 8:30 to 1pm. Went in. Fished again on Sunday, ran north and wasted a lot of time throwing buzz baits and frogs on mats off shore. Nothing. Moved to county park area and caught fish on spook, jigs and carolina rigged brush hogs. Tons of bait everywhere. The jig fish hit while swimming it back, so I tried rippin. Had one chaser to the boat no strikes.

      Report: Boy it's been some time since I have fished here. The plan was to chase Striper boils but that did not happen. Well after two hours I decided to fish for Bass.It was pretty good I ended up with 7 fish 4 Smallmouth and 3 Largemouth.Two of the Smallmouth were 3lbs the other two about 2lbs.The largemouth about 1.5lb's.All cought on plastics and I think if you were to target the Bass it may be pretty darn good.I was a little disappointed in the Lake level thought it would be higher.
