Keswick Reservoir Fish Report for 2-3-2013
We have not received any reports out of Keswick Reservoir in weeks
Keswick Reservoir - Redding, CA (Shasta County)

Current Reservoir Conditions: Probably because our this report has shed dismal light on the fishing situation. So, let's change that. To begin, I'll say the fishing "should" be good, but water conditions are seasoned. Will you catch fish? In all likelihood "yes". So go fish it and send me a report!
The Fly Shop's?? Tips: Suspending Bird's Nests, midge patterns and Pseudo Mays under indicators will work well. Try a Marlee Midge or a #12-14 Bird's Nest suspended under an indicator. Look for the fish in the slower swirls along the edges above Crystal Creek. The key is moving up into the moving water section of Keswick. Fishing the eddies next to the banks, between boulders, where it's shallow can be productive. Stay low Fishing a Deep-7 on a 7-weight fly rod, stripping buggers has been productive.
A motorized boat is a must for gaining access to the part of this reservoir that holds concentrated numbers of rainbow trout. Motor up towards Shasta Dam, look for slow water and big eddies near boulders. Swing, suspend, strip nymphs, leeches. Dry fly fishing happens late in the summer, near sunset. There are big brown trout here....waiting.
