Donner Lake Fish Report for 5-13-2015
Donner lacking trout
Donner Lake - Truckee, CA
by Nor Cal Fish Reports
5-13-2015
Lake is at 62% capacity. It's been over a month now since this lake has seen a stock of catchable Rainbows so you're going to have to be patient. Some boaters have been having success catching Macks around the China Cove area in about 90-110 feet of water with #3 silver needlefish and similar lures. Jigging has also been taking some nice Macks also when they've been holding deep. Kokanee is fishing is okay as trolling at 15-30 feet down is now the method with dodgers in Gold, Silver, or variations of the same with Pink, Orange, or Green followed by Pink, Orange, and Chartreuse spinners, wedding rings, Scorpions, Hoochies, and Kokanuts. Kokes are a little small ranging in the 11 inch range. As the season progresses they may come up in size to maybe 13-14 inches if food is plentiful and competition for food low. For the shore fisherman this week you'll have to work a little bit harder to catch those planters as they are dispersing through the lake now. (530) 587-4844
