Sacramento Perch

[TubeDude]

[cool][#0000ff]Maybe we can get a BFT caravan going out there. GEEZER, a BFTer, used to live out in that area and is very familiar with it. He has passed along a few things to me and I keep trying to make it but keep getting derailed by other things.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]DWR does not supply any info in their Hotspots or their basic info on state waters. It is kind of an orphan child as far as available info goes. But, I have collected a few maps and scrounged up some trivia. See attached for a photo and an aerial view.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]For one thing, it is a small lake, with the deepest (dam) end at the north and a shallow muddy inlet area on the south. There are supposedly largemouths and channel cats in there too, as well as carp. From fishing them in California, I have found them to be a lot like crappies...small lures, fished slow at mid depth...liking structure if they can find it. GEEZER says that they used to catch a bunch of Sacramento perch by just fishing a piece of worm on a hook. That might be too high tech for me.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I am planning a shot sometime around the first of May. Might stop off at DMAD either before or after.[/#0000ff]
