Trout are biting hard at Lake McSwain with Power Bait and nightcrawlers, while kokanee thrive at New Melones and Tulloch—guides are trolling deep then switching to jigging as sun rises. Bass fishing’s tougher midday but explodes after dark. Shaver and Huntington Lakes still offer solid kokanee action despite boat traffic, trout fishing slowed since July plant but more are expected soon; trolling in deep water delivers mixed limits. Wishon and Courtright are exploding post-massive trout plant—with another on the way—and lures are working wonders. Delta’s striped bass are shifting into fall patterns west of the Delta, largemouth are everywhere but big ones hide in thick cover.
