Few smallmouth bass who like crickets in Black Creek. John Youngquist at Pines Market reports bank anglers by the Sheriff's Tower bank have been catching good numbers of rainbows on crawlers or rainbow Power Bait. Cliff Cox at the General Store reports people fishing, but very few catching. The DFG is supposed to stock today or tomorrow. The lake is low.
Fishing is decent, but difficult to get anything but a hand-launched boat in the water.
The Dam is still the best area for rainbows. Trout are taking corn. Bank anglers are catching rainbows to 15 feet on Power Bait or crawlers. Edison Campground is the best area. Emeryville Sportfishing reports limits on rock cod at the Farallons and rock and dungeness crab combinations.
