New Melones Reservoir Fish Report

Trout: Slow.  There haven't been many anglers targeting trout.  Best bet would be to fish the main lake by the Dam, spillway, and near the 49 bridge.  The trout are hanging around the old river channel in deeper/cooler water.  The shad are starting to school up near the mouths of major creek channels.  The intersection where a major creek channels meets the old river channel is great area to target the trout. Kokanee: Fair.  The kokanee are working their way upriver for their annual spawn and die.  We have reports of a few fish being caught in the dam spillway area, but the majority of fish are being caught near the 49 bridge and up toward Parrots Ferry Bridge.  The fish are starting to get a little color with some having a little hook mouth showing. 

Bass: Fair.  The bite has been pretty good in the morning and evening.  Generally the top water bite is good at this time of year but right now we are getting very few surface blow ups.  Most fish are being caught on a variety of soft plastic presentations.  A Carolina rig, Texas rig, dart head, and drop shot are all good ways to catch them.  The fish are in deep/cooler water throughout the day and move shallow early and late to feed.
