EBMUD had been diligently working to lower Lake Camanche’s water level in preparation of the spring runoff. This week the elevation has actually risen over the last few days to 219.88′ and 74% full as of this report. Lake Camanche was receiving 2,854 C.F.S. from Lake Pardee while releasing approx. 2,002 C.F.S.Lak

Mt. Lassen Trout came in on Thursday 3/28 for their delivery. We received 900 lbs. to the south shore pond and 900 lbs. to the south lake. Lake Camanche should receive 1,200 lbs. of trout at the north shore boat ramp sometime before next weekend.

Ge Moua posted on the Lake Camanche Fishing FB page and reported, “Took my Bro N Law and his family out for a fishing trip at Camanche. Started out HOT, hooked a 7lb on grub. All these fish were caught at the narrow on grub and rapala. All were in the top 10 ft at 1.8 mph. We ended up with 2 bass,2 crappie and 6 trout. It was a good day with the family.” Ge answered a question writing, “1/8 oz jig head 3″ powerbait grub, white was the color for that day. These trout are picky, so have a few colors on hand. Using downriggers at 5-10 ft ,125ft out and 1.8 mph.” In answering another question stating, ” If fishing from boat, I’ve been catching them at the narrow. Using rapala in all colors but firetiger seems best. Downrigger? If not, just top line them with 125 ft of line out, Speed is 2mph. All the fish were caught at top 10ft with rapala.”
