Apr 29, 2002; 07:14PM - Lake Cachuma Bass and Trout trolling techniques
|
|
Category: California Freshwater Lakes

Tip&Trick Description 1:
My first time fishing Lake Cachuma was this last weekend April 27th 2002 and I will let you in on a secret this is a fine lake with great staff excellent fishing and abundant campsites. I was very impressed with the guys at the marina ( Jim and Allen) for giving us great tips for fishing their lake without holding back any information necessary for a first timer to their lake. Right out of the marina he told me to troll straight thru the center of the lake and we would be sure to get bit and he was right. Less than 10 minutes from the launch ramp right where he suggested we caught the first fish a nice largemouth bass about 3-4 lbs and lost the first hook up as we were surprised to get a strike so soon. This fish jumped clear out of the water and fought like a much larger fish than it actually ended up being. |
|
Tip&Trick Description 2:
We released the bass and continued anxious to get to the trout which is what we were after. On the way to the next spot Jim and Allen had given us directions to we saw 4 deer on the shore grazing like they owned the place (which I guess they did) We set our sites on the points jetting out along the far side of the lake about 200 feet offshore. Instantly off one of the points both the reels went off as we were trolling rainbow trout colored Yo-zuri Emperor Minnows and L-Jack series lures on 4 and 6 lb test at a fairly slow troll. First fish fell off but I managed to get mine to the boat and into it for supper that evening. We did a turn around and went right back over the same spot and sure enough another missed opportunity. Back we went again with another 2 strikes managing to get one in the boat for a better meal for the 3 of us eating that night. Back and forth again for nothing and we decided to give the opposite bank a try. |

Tip&Trick Description 3:
On the other side of the lake were the serious bass guy's fishing the bow of their sleek boats with the chairs and trolling motor on the bow. We steered clear of them and moved again about 200 feet off the shoreline and continued our trolling pattern slow and parallel to shore. We started noticing the wind more and more as we headed back towards the launch ramp noticing there was only one jacket made it to the boat and it was mine! We again managed to get another rainbow to strike right out of the water it jumped and then a small battle and into the boat it came. We were done now 1 fish each for dinner and one released bass in about 2 hours fishing time. Now it was back to camp to make dinner and get warm. A jacket is a good thing to bring on any lake as the wind always decides to blow in the afternoon. I must tell you that the guy's at the marina tackle shop know their stuff about where the fish are biting and what they are biting on. Without their tips we may have come home empty handed as several others had that day. Good luck if you get a chance to fish Lake Cachuma and be sure to say hello the the great guys at the tackle shop near the launch ramp it may pay off big time for you in the long run.....Fish on! <'))))>< |

ZIHUATANEJO, MAINLAND MEXICO
IN GENERAL: The IGFA announced this week that our “Jacks or Better” Roosterfish-on-the-Fly tournament will be one of the qualifying events and the winner will be invited to compete in their Inshore Championship in April, 2005. http://igfa.org/tournaments/event-display.cfm?eveid=441 Don’t miss out on the first ever Rooster-on-the Fly event in Zihuatanejo. http://www.bajafly.com/jacksorbetter.htm
The 78º blue water remains at 12 miles and the blue marlin bite is still strong. Each day about 1 in every 4 boats is getting a shot at a marlin. When you consider they are not targeting marlin, but rather pulling smaller baits for the sailfish, those are fairly decent numbers. The sailfish action is holding steady at about two fish per boat per day.
The inshore action has really taken off. While guiding Baja on the Fly fishing client Steve Walser of Soulsbyville, Calif., (Note: Soulsbyville is a mountain town in the California Gold Country in case you didn’t recognize it) he was hooking a fish about every 5 minutes. We were fishing the near point at the White Rocks and in the mixed bag were black skipjack tuna, jack crevalle, and rainbow runners.
