There's a lot of good action coming out of Contra Loma right now. EBParks continues to stock Lassen rainbows just about every other week (at least). And with water temps sitting in the mid-60s, bass have moved shallow to spawn.

Plenty of bedded bass are around the lake, but the issue is limited shoreline access due to the growing overabundance of weeds. Still, some nice 3-5 pound fish are being caught, primarily on weedless soft plastic worms and creature baits. A few fish are still in prespawn, and feeding in more open water where Flukes or underspins are working well.

Trout are slowly moving into deeper zones with climbing water temps, but the bite is still good. Mini jigs have been working very well in the morning hours, while floated night crawlers and Powerbait are getting fish midday.

Water temps should drop a bit this week with forecasted colder nights, so look for trout to move into shallower zones all day.
