Del Valle: The level of the water in this lake has gone up due to the rain that we had over the last few weeks. Trout fishing hasn’t been that good but is slowly starting to pick up. If you are looking for the hottest spots in the lake, head to Swallow Bay and to the Narrows.

Amador: This is going to be a good location if you are heading out for some trout. The best places for you to go from the shore are going to be the Spillway and the Dam. Those who are on boats are having a harder time trying to pick up fish in the area.

Anderson: You are going to be able to find clusters of bass in the area because of how cold the weather has been. Once you find the cluster, you will be able to grab multiple fish with ease. Fish tend to cluster in similar spots, so you can return multiple times to find fish in the same cluster.

Berkeley: Crabbing has been strong in this general area, making it somewhat popular. Do not head to this area for shrimp – the catch has been iffy at best.

Coyote: This location only has access to the shore, and has not been biting well over the last week.

Del Valle: Del Valle is on winter hours, meaning that the park hours are from 7 in the morning until 6 at night. Trout fishing has been absolutely incredible during these times, however, bringing in plenty of limits for both boaters and shore anglers. There have been some bass caught by those using crankbaits and spoons.

Emeryville: Crab boats are going out and coming back with limits. Bay fisherman have not been happy with this area, however.

Los Vaqueros: This location has been slow over the last week but should pick up next week. There will be a 1200 pound trout plant within the next week.

Calero: This has also been a strong location for Bass fishing over the last week or two.Definitely the right spot for drop shots and shaky heads, as both have been performing well in the area.

Chesbro: This location has left a lot to be desired over the last few weeks. While catfish are still biting, cut baits are only getting a somewhat decent bite. Everything else has been somewhat disappointing.

Clear: Bass fishing is expected to grow and thrive over then ext few weeks. Do not use artificial lures if you are trying to grab bass, as they are simply not working in this area. If you are looking for a strong crappie bite, head here. If you are looking for a strong catfish bite, head here toward the night.

Coyote: Shore fishing has actually been somewhat decent over the last week, as the bass bite is starting to pick up. Use Jigs and Plastics if you are trying to get a strong bite.

Del Valle: Trout fishing has started to become really popular in the area, as limits are coming in at a somewhat regular clip. Head to the east beach if you want the best fishing in the area. Crappie has been strong, especially for those heading toward the Marina. Bass fishing has been somewhat strong yet overshadowed by the strong crappie and trout bite.

Lake San Antonio: There are some fishermen who are heading out into this area. While the bite is not strong, they are managing to pick up some catfish and some stripers.

Los Vaqueros: Fishing has been somewhat decent in the area, but most have abandoned this location for now. You can still pick up some big catfish in this particular area, and can also pick up some good stripers. IF you are looking for trout, wait until next week - the plant is going in on November 5th.

Quarry Lakes: Mount Lasson trout went into the lake to the tune of 500 pounds last week. There will be another plant coming within the next week. Catfish are also biting in this area, making it a strong destination for fishing.

San Luis Reservoir: There are some stripers that are coming in with double digits in this location. Use jumbo minnows to pick them up. Head to Portuguese Cove for the best fishing in the area.

San Pablo Reservoir: Some large catfish are being caught in the area, as are some bass. Head to the shoreline and to the dam if you want the best fishing in the area. With that being said, the lake is going to close on Sunday, October 31st until the middle of February.
