Mendo mid-day

Never, I mean NEVER ! go to a fishing place with out a rod. The first time you go without one, you'll miss one of the best days. Murphy's law... Way to bang em Juan. I'll be up there this fall I'm sure, and come steelhead season, let's talk...

3-4 inch Shad imitations.

Toysrus, commonly used, and my favorite, is the Spittin' Image Shad. There's a pic of one on the how-to article for the lake. I take the front treble off to make releasing/unhooking easier. I'm done getting hooked every time I also hook a fish. Catch and release only the fish.
I went today and they pulled a no-show. It was windy as heck too.
A guy told me they boiled in the evening by the dam.
Anothe rguy told me the Corp is going to close the lake to PB's soon. It's been low before and they never closed it then. It doesn't matter, I own a YAK!

Thanks for the shouts guys. I will be posting my results no matter how humble they may be be.
