Feels like spring has sprung here at Lake Almanor. The weather has been fantastic, and all this nice weather has put the spring bite into overdrive. All three species of fish, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout and King Salmon continue to make their presence known in a big way. Savage strikes followed by some drag screaming runs and a bunch of rod bending torque come together to make for quite a day of fishing and put some big smiles on faces.

So we have nice weather, rising water temps (now in the mid to high 50's) and a pretty good start to the aquatic bug hatch season. The bugs make up an important part of the food supply for the fish here at Almanor, and when they start coming off, you better believe the fish know it. The bug hatches tend to concentrate large numbers of fish which translates into some pretty exciting fishing for us. Recent trips have seen us hooking more than 20 fish per outing. By the way, this is just getting started and will keep on rolling right on into summer.

If you have been waiting for some nice weather to get your spring fishing fix look no further. There are a few open days in the next two weeks but once they are gone they are gone.
