Hello from Your Lake Jennings: There continues to be a decent bass bite along the edges in the morning. The key is to drag something ugly off the bank into the water very slowwwwwly. OR skip a jig or tube under the overhanging trees, again very slow retrieve . The deepest that fish have been caught at during the day is 15' to 20' on the points. Some cats are being caught from shore where you can reach the channel from Hermit Cove and Big Rock. Your best bet is to fish from a boat in 80 to 100 ft. of water.

Best Cat Spots: The dam buoyline and Hermit Cove buoyline.
Best Cat Bait: Chicken livers, mackeral and night crawlers. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: Target the bank, fish downhill with creature type baits.
Best Bass Lures /bait: . Ika's, big worms, and Senkos

Water Temp. 74 degrees on surface.

Notables: No fish reported over 3 lbs. or limits under1 hour.

Prognosis: Our first trout plant should be on schedule for the week of October 19th. Don't let the cool water fool you into thinking that you can't catch cats. There is no better time than right now to fill a limit. The lake will start dropping even faster which will further displace small fish and crawdads. So concentrate on the bank. We are bringing back our twilight boat rentals. Motorboats are $ 20.00 for the last 3 hours that we are open. So you can get a boat at 4 PM for $ 20.00. We are only 1 week away from the start of our trout season. Mt Lassen has developed a new strain of rainbow trout that they are calling the "Sierra Bow." http://www.mtlassentrout.com/sierrabow.html

The Lake Jennings Free Fishing University will be teaching cat fishing for 1 last week......
