Lake Chabot continues to produce both quality and quantity when it comes to trout. The lake was stocked with Lassen rainbows by EBRPD last week, marking the third stocked week in a row. Limits are coming mostly on PowerBait and Mice Tails fished on short leaders with light line, cast into the deepest water you can reach. Coot Landing and Raccoon Point have been good starting points. Plenty of 1 to 2 pound fish are showing, and an 8+ pounder was also caught last week. Water is stained, so strong scent on your bait is important. Water levels jumped with the recent storm, and some of the usual access points are now flooded. With water temps still in the low 50s, bass action remains quiet. We likely only need a week of warm weather to trigger prespawn movement.
