Fish Report for 7-4-2024

Good topwater action can be had early and late in the day

7-4-2024
The Fly Shop

Shasta is literally heating up and the Spots are congregating on structure near the banks. Good topwater action can be had early and late in the day, Jones Valley is a hot spot and if you throw a Swimming Frog or just about any popper near a dead tree you will be rewarded. A sinking line fished toward the shore so you can bounce a crawdad pattern or baitfish pattern down the banks will also be effective. Bounce a Concussion Cray, Jiggy Worm or Grim Reaper on the rocks or strip the Tui Chub Pyramid Minnow.

Hot Flies: 

• Wooly Buggers
• Float-n-Flies
• Dead Drop Minnow
• Zack's Stillwater Balanced Leech
