Guide’s Tips & Notes
Advice for This Week
Expect lower numbers compared to two weeks ago. You might hook 1-3, maybe 4 fish.
Focus on deeper water (30-50 feet).
Stay out in the middle of the lake where there’s more depth.
Use Trigger Spoons, Trigger Spoon Juniors, and chrome killer scent. Setbacks should be around 50 to 70 feet.
Changes We’re Seeing
Major drop-off in fishing action compared to two weeks ago.
Water temperature has increased significantly, pushing fish deeper.
Trout being caught are generally smaller than the big trophies Lake Amador is known for.
Predictions for Next Week
Lake Amador is still a viable option, but expect smaller fish and fewer bites as water continues warming.
