Spotted and white bass have keyed in on the shad schools

Nacimiento Lake held near 11 percent of capacity, and fishing has been good. Spotted and white bass have keyed in on the shad schools, and they can be targeted throughout the water column. Their location depends on where the shad are holding. Vertical spoons, crankbaits, jerkbaits, and finesse plastics are all working for bites. Drop shot, darter heads, and shaky heads have been getting bite in 5 to 25 feet of water, and reactions baits got results after anglers located shad schools. Green Pumpkin, Aaron’s Magic, and shad colors all seemed to work well. The white bass fell for vertical spoons and inline spinners, and catfish have been fair on cut baits and chicken liver.
