    Effective April 14 thru May 13, Folsom Lake is closed to all motorized boats, due to mitigation efforts to irradicate the spread of Golden Mussels. In addition, after May 13th, all motorized boats have to be inspected and prove a 30 day quarantine (dry docked) before it can launch on the lake. Scan the QR code in the picture for details.

    More trailer troubles for me, so with my boat on dry dock, I had to do some hiking. Walked up the North Fork to Mormon's Ravine had some luck using 10.5" Zoom Monster on a Texas Rig setup. I thought I would get a few with a swim bait riding across the top of the grass, but the bass on this day seemed to prefer to stay low and ambush that worm as I pulled it back to shore. I caught this one off a submerged rock pile I know of using the same setup.

    I was up on the North Fork, above Rattlesnake Bar. Took me a minute to figure it out....but on this day, a Ned Rig using a Z-Man Finesse TRD was the answer. And dark blue, with a white/silver belly was the pattern. At this point, I'm staying away from all the submerged brush. As juicy as they look, the fish just haven't moved there yet and it's not producing. They were all concentrated on the rocky shore lines and submerged boulders just off-shore. It was super windy and super crowded (Translation: Too many wakeboarders about) which made it difficult to lock into position. But if I approached from upwind and let the wind push me into place, I had time for a couple of good casts into my target zones. I caught some nice ones today!
