This lake! It's different every time I go out. What a grind. The one constant is the KVD Blue Craw Red Flake color. KVD has it for just about every soft bait they offer. So if you're going to Folsom, I strongly recommend stocking up on whatever your favorite finesse techniques are with this pattern. The lake level is down a bit. And as I continue to pull myself away from fishing the shoreline (where I'm most confident) to learn more offshore techniques, I was able to go off shore and easily find submerged boulders. I wasn't getting any action with a Texas rig, so I switched to a shop shot, and things lit up from there. I went from grumpy to happy, pretty quick!

With the water dropping so fast the bite slowed a lot from 2 weeks ago. Managed a limit with a full day of fishing. Launched at Granite Bay and fished 1/2 day on the East side of the lake with only 2 bites. Moved to the West side near Dotson's point and found several spots with fish. With the warm water the fish are hanging out in the 20-25' depth near ledges. Only 1 fish on a deep running crankbait and the rest all came on wacky rig drop-shot. Half the fish were on the Zoom green pumpkin worm and the other half on the Missile Bait Ned Bomb Green Pumpkin. good luck!
