Hey SRS,

What lakes are you fishing? The ones I am fishing have been doing pretty good on reaction type baits. I am fishing Cachuma and Castaic lately and the crank and jerkbait bite has been pretty good. One thing that I have found is that all my fish on both lakes have been coming off rocky areas with some form of wood cover. If you fishing from a boat, I highly recommend looking for some form of baitfish activity which will increase your odds on hook ups.
