FISH PLANTS
Mt. Lassen Trout delivered 600 lbs to the South shore pond and 600 lbs to the South shore marina on Monday, January 28th.

TROUT
Sudden changes in weather seem to have the trout confused and less active then what would be expected this time of the year. Anglers are still catching trout but tend to catch that single large fish rather than catching limits. Baits of choice are still rainbow and chartreuse power baits with or without glitter and/or garlic as well as night crawlers and power eggs. We had Gene Nixon of Lodi catch a nice 6.66 lb trout out of the South shore trout pond while fishing with power bait.

BASS
Local bass fishermen are reporting that on sunny days they have been getting between 10 to 15 bass per day while drop shotting shad colored fatty worms and half ounce brown and purple jigs in about 35 to 50 feet of water.
