Eagle Lake Fish Report

Eagle Lake - Susanville, CA (Lassen County)

There has been a change since surface temps remain below 70 degrees. Anglers went from catching tons of trout at 24 to 32 feet deep to catching more in the upper 5 feet of the water column in a matter of three days. The surface temps dropped last week to 67 on the west side and 68’s on the east side and has gotten the attention of some of the trout.  Nearly every trout, caught the last two days was about 5 feet deep trolling. Brown or cinnamon leech trolling flies were still hot, but by Sunday the trout were on fluorescent orange (Jay Fair’s Hot Orange) ruled the top water bite.  The trout are still out in deep water but the active bite has come up the water column. My partner & I ran lures at all levels and the deepest solo fish was at 18 feet The best lures for us were orange (red prism) Needlefish, small #1 black/pearl was hot after sunrise and Speedy Shiners all trolled between 2.5 and 2.8 mph. We ran the trolling flies pretty fast too and they still got hammered. But the trolling flies in the upper 5 feet of water 35 to 60+ ft deep was where the fish were. Fishing is productive just north of the jetty at Eagle Lake Marina and trolling toward the springs and Eagle’s Nest. Stay well out towards the middle of the lake. www.eaglelakefishing.net
