Castaic Lake
THIS WEEK'S HOT SPOTS
STRIPED BASS: Castaic Lake has been kicking out quality stripers to 13-0 for anglers fishing anchovies or sardines from 40 to 100 feet deep. Most fish are weighing from 2-0 to 6-0, but plenty of bigger fish are showing. Lake Silverwood has been kicking out fair numbers of stripers from 2-0 to 4-0 on anchovies. The bite has been better for boat anglers fishing the deeper waters near the inlet, spillway, and dam. The California Aqueduct from Bakersfield to Hesperia continues to pump out fish with minimum fishing pressure. Best times to target this area is early in the morning or late in the evening due to high temperatures. On the Colorado River, striper fishing broke open at Mohave and Mead. Weekend boat traffic has still been heavy and slows the fishing, so the best fishing is reported around mid-week or at night.
