About the lake
Northern California, warming weather, 70°F surface temp, clear to slightly stained water. Kokanee bite is hot, kings active deeper (55-90 ft), trout bite improving as water warms. Surface temps hit 70°F creating a warm layer, concentrating shad deeper. Expect strong kokanee/king bites, and improving trout action as the lake warms.
