New Melones Reservoir Fish Report

The trout bite this winter has been very good with bank anglers and trolling anglers catching plenty of planted and holdover rainbow trout.  There have also been a handful of nice brown trout being caught.  The Department of Fish and Game has had multiple plants of rainbow trout so far and has more scheduled.  The fish have moved up and can be found feeding on the surface throughout the day.  Bank anglers are catching limits off of Glory Hole Point and near the Tuttletown boat launch.  Try fishing wind protected pockets and coves just off of the main lake.  Power Bait, Gulp Eggs, or a crawler/mallow combo fished off of the bottom works well.  It is also a good idea to add extra scent to your presentation. The bass bite has been hit and miss.  When you find the fish you can catch a bunch of fat 2-4 pound spotted bass.  The hard part is spotted bass tend to roam, they will be there one day and gone the next.     Glory Hole Sports  (209) 736-4333
