Lake Information

This is one of the most productive fly fishing lakes in Nor Cal. There are lots of fish that are 12 to 16 inches and bigger at times. The west side is best for fly fishing. You can use all the standard lake patterns here like Sheep Creeks, damsels, small wooly buggers and leeches. Lots of pattern can work here unless you are having a real big hatch. Then you need to stop trolling and cast something that looks like the bugs to working fish on a floating line.
