#17442, "Camanche Lake (Near Stockton) trout June 11 (That's al..."
Got one little trout @ one pound for six hours of trying yesterday at Camanche Reservoir near Stockton, Ca. But who's complaining?! I trolled and bait fished, just couldn't garner much attention. The lake is getting too warm for healthy trout (72° surface water now), and they've stopped the planting 'til October. The attraction is that Camanche puts out 10 pound trout quite often.
I did get my "transom saver" from Cabela's yesterday and got it installed today. I don't think that armored transom could be hurt towing with the engine raised, but no sense in taking chances. Photos at www.fishwisher.com
