This is the last fish report of the season. Thank you for your interest in receiving the report. We had an outstanding fishing season here at Convict Lake and look forward to fishing opener 2012! Hope that you all have a wonderful winter season.

Catch of the Week: John Young from Ventura, CA brings in a 3 lb. Alper's Rainbow Trout on Garlic PowerBait along the South Shore.

Derby News: There are 207 entrants in the Ambush at the Lake fishing derby and 40 fish 14" or longer registered into the drawing for $6,000 in resort prizes.

Weather: As you can see we have had some flurries here but it has not been windy or that cold. Through the close of fishing season November 15th beyond today the prediction is highs in the 50's, evening lows in the 20's and partly to mostly sunny skies. Here is a local site that is usually quite accurate www.mammothweather.com.
