Good Trout bite
Trout, Bass, Striped Bass
63°F Clear

Trout are still around at Del Valle, especially early morning at East Swim Beach, but the window is short—once the sun hits, they move off fast. If you miss the morning bite, check deeper, cooler zones past the Narrows or on shaded banks. Bass are getting more aggressive as water temps rise. They can be seen cruising the shallows near the inflow...

Trout are still around at Del Valle, especially early morning at East Swim Beach, but the window is short—once the sun hits, they move off fast. If you miss the morning bite, check deeper, cooler zones past the Narrows or on shaded banks. Bass are getting more aggressive as water temps rise. They can be seen cruising the shallows near the inflow and tucked into coves, and the bite should only get better as the spawn kicks in. Smallmouth are showing too, usually holding 5–10 feet deeper than the largemouth. Striper action is hit or miss, but the bite is quietly building as shad schools thicken. Soaking anchovies or sardines from shore can work, or try working swimbaits from a boat for better reach.
