The exact lure is MEGABASS 3/8 oz. SUPER-Z Z3 style: baby bass. A steady slow crank with pauses was irresistible today.

Bite is pretty good on Oroville right now. Caught fish anywhere from 5-40' of water. Use your graphs and a heavy dropshot weight with a straight tail pond smelt/shad imitator. as soon as you see a pod of fish cast to them and you will likely get bit. If not graph until you see the next. If you don't see balls of bait around the area as well don't bother. Move on until you see the bait and the small schools of bass pushing them around. Forward facing sonar helps but is not necessary with this technique. A damiki style jighead and 3-4" straight tail baitfish imitator will also work. Other techniques that would be effective would be ballhead with keitech etc or underspin. 2.8-3.3 size. Or a spoon or a blade bait. Good luck.
