More good reports from the Float n' Fly crowd on Shasta. The Pit Arm would be your best bet to find clear water, but if you explore the north side of the lake you should be fine wherever you launch. A lot of bass have moved pretty deep, but plenty remain in the first ten feet of the water column. The tributary creeks and many other little rivulets will draw a lot of fish. Look for fish to congregate on the inflows, look way up in the coves and don't pass up any chances at fish just milling around willy-nilly, they can be players. Some are reporting shad patterns are working well, otherwise midges or small BWO nymphs fished under indicators can work for trout. Try also stripping in a plain old Pheasant Tail in #14 - 18 with an I Line and you won't be disappointed. For the bass not chowing on the incoming protein streams, they are stacked in the 12- 25' depths eating crayfish. Come check out our float-n-fly options to get set up for big numbers! Bounced down the banks this is too much fun. We have guides who can get you out, give Bryan a call to set up a trip!
