Not big enough. The trout baits they throw there are a foot long and
weigh 1/2 to 3/4 pound.

And they cost ALOT of money !

Joe, I have put a word in with some one who used to fish the area and
who is in contact with those who know these areas well. Hopefully, they
can give some good insight!

I would appreciate advice from Bob La Londe, John Kerr, Calif Bill, or any
others who are knowledgeable about fishing spinnerbaits for bass in
Southern
California reservoirs.

Get ahold of John Kerr or Calif Bill.

I have fallen back on three blades for almost all my applications on the
river.

1/4oz willow white w/blue skirt in clear water.

1/2oz White on white almost everywhere else.

1/2oz Midnight Snack early in the morning or late in the evening.

Occassionally I'll throw white and chartreuse in 1/2 oz with white and
chart blades.

In muddy water I just swap a single big colorado blade onto any of the
above that don't already have one.

Don't ask me. I am a terrible spinnerbait fisherman. I still trhow them at
times as others catch lots of fish in the Sac Delta with them, but not me.
Rare is it I catch a fish on a spinnerbait. May book Bobby Barrack for a
training day.

The spinner bait of choice in So. Cal. lakes is 1/2 oz white and
chartreuse with silver willow blades. Or lighter when throwing over
shallow grass, heavier when "bumpng" the bottom. The lakes are pretty
clear for the most part...fast retrieves seem to produce the best.

Like California Bill, I don't fish spinners very often, but the kid
does, and I talked to him about em.

I did catch a nice one on a Secret Weapon I got from Joe at the Classic
at Brakley this year though .

OK, Joe. Sorry it took a couple of days but, here is what I've been
told.

Right now clown colored spinnerbaits ( clear gold skirt/some
silver/strands of Red), a couple folks looked at the site and they
picked the "Blue Herring" overwhelmingly!

They also recommended the "Blue Herring" for most applications where
the water is clear and sunny.

For cloudy days they liked the "Tennessee Shad" and stained water go
with the "Golden Shad".

The "Midnight Snack" for night fishing during summer months and "Rock
Craw" for spring time applications.
