Bass at Lake Nacimiento are spread across a wide range of depths, from shallow zones around 10-15 feet to deeper structure at 35 feet. The jig bite has been solid, with black and blue ¾ oz football jigs producing well, especially around rocky areas. Bigger bass are holding onto the jigs longer, while smaller ones tend to pick up and drop them quickly. Dropshots and ned rigs are also pulling in fish.

White bass are being caught near shad schools on spoons and spinners. Catfish are still being caught as well.
