Creek fishing took off after a plant from the DFG mid-week but the bite slowed down a bit over the weekend. Still, there are a lot of quality fish in the creek thanks to Adopt-A-Creek's Alpers plants every other week. Weir Pond still has a ton of quality fish in it right now so bring your waders.

The bite at South Lake was excellent for the majority of the anglers that fished the lake this last week. Mild crowds meant that there was plenty of shoreline to fish, a treat for many who visit the canyon during the shoulder season. The fish are hanging shallow right now so anglers trolling on top with Olive Wooly Buggers, CD 7 Rapalas and Yozuri Baits are having a lot of luck.
