Congratulations to Garry Deal on landing an official lake record common carp weighing in at 38.2 pounds. Garry caught this carp out of Lake 6 on homemade dough bait. The bass have been biting on topwater baits such as spooks and frogs in the early mornings and late evenings. Popular spots include the east shore of Lake 5 and the southeast corner of Lake 3. The catfish have been biting on shrimp and nightcrawlers. Popular spots include the dock on Lake 4 and the point on the west side of Lake 3. Our next scheduled stock will take place on Friday, June 11. A portion of the Lakes will be closed in order to give the fish time to acclimate. Be sure to join us on Thursday, June 10 from 5 PM to 11:30 PM for our first Summer Night Fishing of the season! No California State License needed, just a Santee Lakes daily permit. Lanterns are required, radios will not be permitted, pets are not permitted, and please be sure to pick up your trash at the end of the event!
