Doesn’t get any better than this at Amador right now.  The fishing has been great and the weather has been beautiful with more good weather to come all week.  We are currently only 6 feet from full.  The handicap ramp will be hooked up to the big fishing dock later this week.  We also have another plant of 1200lbs scheduled to come this week.  Fish are still shallow and close to shore.  The water is slightly muddy right now so on these sunny days shiny lures work well.  Night Crawlers, Power Bait, and orange and white Curly Tail Grubs are doing good.  There have been some nice catfish that have been caught in years past with churned up waters like it is now, so you may take your chance at catfishing too.

Here is a very nice 2 1/2lb Crappie caught by Lucas Taylor who is 9 yrs old. He was trolling a grub in mountain springs.

LUNKER ALERT!!! Everyone from Santa Cruz had a good day off fishing. The big fish was 8 pounds caught by Tommy Carrillo, using gold power bait from the dock.
