Castaic has been on a slow but steady draw down with water levels holding near 76 percent of capacity at the time of reporting. Water temperatures dropped below seventy degrees. Fishing was good last week, but windy days made for tough conditions. Shad schools held in the backs of coves, and live bait anglers reported catching more fish than they could count after filling their live wells with live bait. Topwater riser baits, Espetits, and walking baits all scored bites when the fish pushed shad to the surface. Drop shot and Carolina rigged reapers and 4” Roboworms took large and smallmouth on points, bluff walls, and along the cobble stone shorelines. Boil chasing anglers targeted striped bass with the same topwater baits mentioned above. However, that bite has slowed considerably. Striped bass also fell for trolled umbrella rigs and white/chartreuse streamer flies when the sun was higher in the sky.
