Default Calif trout fishing: Lake Camanche May 29

My fishing buddy John joined me and we drove up to Camanche for some
trout trolling. The weather was perfect, the lake very uncrowded and
nary a single lake lice to be seen. Just a few other fishing boats.

We trolled down to about 30' but most action was from 20' on up to the
surface. We saw fish jumping or rolling literally all day. I guess the
cooler weather has brought them higher - ?

We managed seven fish between us, two for me and five for John. About
half the action was on John's frog pattern Needlefish, half on small
2" Fire Tiger BBRs. John caught a 5 1/4 pounder, I caught a 4 1/2
pounder. Both were nice fighting fish. The rest were about one
pounders or less.

The trout are getting pretty ugly now, every fish had sores. I guess
that's from warm water? Maybe we'll do one more trip to Camanche next
week and then leave it 'til it cools down in the fall.

The water is low, only the lower ramp is available on the south side.
