With the recent storm opening the water spigot, the lake has risen nearly 20 ft and a lot of perennial streams can be found in nearly every back cove. And we've heard the fishing has continued to be pretty good on bass and trout. Look for fish to congregate on the inflows, look way up in the coves and don't pass up any chances at fish just milling around willy-nilly, they can be players. Some are reporting shad patterns are working well, otherwise midges or small BWO nymphs fished under indicators can work. Try also stripping in a plain old Pheasant Tail in #14 - 18 with an I Line and you won't be disappointed. For the bass not chowing on the incoming protein streams, they are stacked in the 12- 25' depths eating crayfish. Come check out our float-n-fly options to get set up for big numbers! Bounced down the banks this is too much fun. Winter bass and rainbows on Shasta is a lot of fun!
