Mather Lake

Well, it wasn't wild trout I caught this morning, but fun none the less. Mather was stocked by DFG this week and I had only a couple of hours to play, so I went there. Surprisingly, only a half dozen or so bankies were there. I floated the entire lake by myself. I had several grabs, but only landed three rainbows to 16". I fished for about an hour and a half. The lake is in great shape, once you get away from the shore weedline, which extends out about 10-15'.

Thanks Rooster

They plant some of the local warm water ponds with trout in the winter like Rancho Seco but I didn't know about Mather Pond.

Mather Llake was just planted the week of the 13th. Should be a good time close to the home. This 55 acre man made lake fishes well from a float tube. Fish the corner at the far end of the dam, farthest from the parking lot. They tend to school up there for some reason.

Thanks Steve, being really pinched for some fishing time this weekend I might try Mather. Ed
