8-6-2012
San Pablo Reservoir

Reservoir Hours: 6:00 AM to 7:30 PM
Marina Hours: 6:00 AM to 6:30 PM
Last Trout Plant: 1,200 lbs. on July 23rd.
Water Temperature: 73 Degrees

The trout bite slowed down but people catching trout here and there. People that are trolling are still having the some luck using Rapalas like the broken back Fire Tiger and Rainbow Runners down to about 10 to 20 ft. in front of Scow Canyon and out near the Dam. Berkley PowerBait colors such as Green Pumpkin, Chartreuse, Garlic are the top choice of bait as well as Berkley Mice Tails. PowerEggs and Nightcrawlers have also been working well. Crappie and Bluegill are biting on jigs and worms. Catfish have been biting on Chicken Liver and Anchovies as well as Nightcrawlers. Bass action has been doing well with people using Sinko's in a wacky rig and swimbaits have been working well also.
