Trout fishing at Contra Loma is heating up after recent CDFW and Lassen plants, with anglers landing limits of 12 inchers with a few quality fish mixed in. Mice Tails, Mepps spinners, and Garlic PowerBait are getting hit, especially along the west side. Anglers are dealing with quite a bit of grass near shore, but steeper areas have cleaner access. Bass action is slow as the water is still chilly, but a few 2-3 pounders were reported using shad-style soft plastics like Flukes last week.
