Here’s the latest from our local lakes:

2)  Pyramid Lake….Fair to good striped bass action also on the surface.  Try the coves for bluegill and catfish.  The largemouth bass are mostly suspended in 12 – 30 feet of water.
3)  Lake Piru….Try early AM in the coves for good bass action.  Fair catfish and bluegill bite.  Very good crappie action in the coves and bays.

Pretty good bluegill bite.
