Fish Report for 9-9-2022

Water temps remained in the low eighties

9-9-2022
Chad Burton and Chris Borden

Castaic held near 34 percent of capacity, and water temps remained in the low eighties. Anglers reported no change in fishing conditions. Bass continued to chase shad, and there’s an excellent topwater bite on all surface baits. Smaller topwater baits seemed to get more action, but patient anglers were rewarded with bigger fish when fishing bigger topwater lures. Largemouth went for finesse plastics in shad and brown colors during the hot parts of the day, and there’s been a second shot at the topwater bite in the evenings. Striper fell for the same topwater lures as the bass, and they boiled sporadically in open water throughout the day. Cut baits, nightcrawlers, and lugworms scored plenty of linesides at the buoy line near the forebay. Catfish ate dip bait, chicken liver, and cut mackerel in deeper coves.
