Lake Sonoma Fishing Report

Stayed close to home on the Warm Springs side again today. The bite was actually better than I anticipated for the holiday weekend with tons of boats, houseboats, jet skis, yahoos, etc.. Was done by 11a, when the campers' stereos started competing with each other. Boated 6 fish today. 4 dinkers b/w 12-14oz....2 fish worth noting. Still getting lots of bites flipping the keitech 3.8in swing impact fat on a 1/8oz core tackle TUSH rig w/ 2/0 hook.

Stayed on the Warm Springs side today. Went all the way to the very end. Caught 8 bass total today. 2 decent ones and 6 dinkers about 12-14oz ea. And, 1 catfish of 4lbs 9oz. Still catching them all on a 3.8in Keitech Fat Swing Impact (elec blue / chartreuse) on a 1/8oz Core Tackle TUSH rig 2/0. The catfish too! I switched colors to Threadfin Shad, tried Black Shad, too. Nothing. Put an electric blue / chartreuse back on, and started getting bites again. I'm just flipping the swim bait to the edges of the trees & cover along the banks and letting it fall on a semi slack line. Lost my personal best for Lake Sonoma, today.....right at the boat.....I'm buying a larger net...LOL. Was at least 4, maybe 4.5. The bite is definitely picking up!
