Hello from Your Lake Jennings: The last few weeks have had the following patterns solidify. The bass for the most part are stacked up on the points. Dropshotting worms or Ikas in 30 ft. of water are your best bet. Shadow Cove remains the most productive spot for trout. Hermit Cove and Cactus Patch are hit and miss. A few trollers are getting limits trolling crawlers but it takes 8 hours to do it. The quarry is the best spot for cats though the buoyline is just OK.

Best Trout Spots: Shadow Cove, Shadow Cove and Cactus Patch
Best Trout Lures / Bait: Inflated crawlers on a 4 ft. leader dipped in scent and drifted down the water column using a water float.

Best Cat Spots: The quarry off of Sentry Point ( see topo ) and dam buoyline.
Best Cat Bait: Chicken livers have been a "secret" bait for some who prefer to remain anonymous. Night Crawlers. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: Off the points dropshotting in 25 to 35 ft. water.
Best Bass Lures /bait: Greens and brown worms in 30 ft worked better than everything else.

Water Temperature: 65 to 66 degrees on surface.

Notables: Saturday, Ashley Kay, 11 yrs. old, El Cajon, 4-0 rainbow, Chartreuse Power Bait, Shadow Cove.

Prognosis: Mt Lassen continues to add another 1000 lbs. of trout on Tuesday of this week. Still the best chance for trout is from a boat at Shadow Cove. Cats require that you fish deep. Open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 5:45 AM to 5:15 PM. Prime times for both cats and bass are 5:30 AM to 9 AM and 4:30 to dark thirty.

The Lake Jennings Free Fishing University will be teaching bait fishing for trout at 1 PM on Sunday.

Lake Jennings Weekly Catch and Release Hello from Lake Jennings! Don't forget we are open Thanksgiving Day.
