Fishing for Trout hasn't changed to much they are slowly moving up the lake more are being caught in the Lower Narrows and Marina Area off of Night Crawlers, Shad like Crank/Jerk-baits, and Powerbait. Catfish are picking up over at the Dam using Chicken Livers and Anchovies. Large and Smallmouth bass bite has slowed down a little with what has been observed is that the Bass are more into each other than any food right now and getting ready to bed soon. They are biting on Senkos and Roboworms mostly and drop-shotting works the best. They are hanging out around 5 feet of the water in the very shallows under brush in Coves, at the South End, and Hetch Hetchy area. Stripers are still hanging out along the Lower Narrows still Anchovies, swimbaits, and Trout-like lures work best.
