Nacimiento Lake fell to 63 percent of capacity, and anglers reported steady fishing conditions. Spotted bass took drop shot, darter head grubs, and Pro Senkos in dark green, brown, and baitfish colors. That translates into Green Pumpkin/Aaron’s Magic, Ox Blood, and Smoke Shad in Roboworm colors. Most of the fish have been holding in 10 to 20 feet of water, but fish fell for Senkos, crankbaits, and small swimbaits up shallow as well. White bass ate spoons and inline spinners both trolled or cast, and catfish anglers reported decent results while using cut mackerel and dip bait.
