Fishing Tips

[calibassin]

im going to a lake soon and every time I have been there i never catch anything.

It is a decent size reservoir with lots of weeds and grass underwater but since the state stocks rainbows and channel cats that's all people fish for. I know for a fact that there are bass here, but i never catch any.  any tips would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Best thing would be to talk to the locals and see if you can find a fishing report for the lake you are going to.  If it's clear, I'd go with natural looking colors of soft plastics.

looks like a higher elev lake...may have spots in it, maybe SM. Drop shot works well when its clear.
