  • Stocking: The last stocking was the week of July 12th. The next catfish stocking will be the week of August 2nd. For an updated stocking schedule, click HERE.
  • What's the catch? It was a cooler, cloudy weekend and the fish were active! We had lots of bass caught from the shoreline around Siesta Point and big rock on blue/black flake Senkos and shiners. Cats were biting in the evenings on shrimp, nightcrawlers, and mackerel. The most productive coves were Hermit, Cloister, and Shadow.  Bluegill were biting all over the lake, but catches from the t-dock were the most abundant. Nightcrawlers and meal worms are doing the trick. 
  • Conditions: The district has been drafting this month. Be aware of changing shorelines. The current temperature is 76 degrees. New Moon is Sunday, August 8th. For a complete weather report in Lakeside, click HERE.

We are looking for a part-time Assistant Recreation Ranger to work in the bait shop as well as an Assistant Maintenance Ranger to help maintain the property and facilities.
