Baum Lake - Cassel, CA (Shasta County)

Current Lake Conditions: A bunch of rainbows just showed up if you know what I mean! Anglers fishing #18 Red Copper Johns, Black Midge patterns and Woolly Buggers have been doing well. Bring a few PMD dries and various cripple mayfly patterns for a chance at taking fish on the dry fly! Expect a solid fishing experience through the week.
The Fly Shop's?? Tips: Fish midges all day! Look for occasional hatches of BWO's and PMD's that produce surface feeding and dry fly opportunities. Stripping and retrieving Leeches on intermediate sinking lines is a great tactic as is suspending #22 black Zebra Midges or Mercer's Gidget under a small indicator. Try a black A.P. on a slow retrieve. There are a lot of scuds in Baum Lake, making various scud patterns an obvious choice. Suggested leader selection consists of 9' 5x and a spool of 6X tippet for dry flies and the smallest nymphs.
Baum Lake is an ideal fishing destination for pontoon boats, float tubes and small prams.
Fishing an Intermediate sinking line with a small PT nymph can produce a bent fly rod. The key is SLOW strips! Nothing in Baum Lake is moving fast. Use lighter, longer leaders. Delicate dry-fly presentations will produce more strikes.
