Inland Lakes Report
Lake Nacimiento
The spotted bass bite has been outstanding on topwater this week. Work Whopper Ploppers, poppers and walking baits early and late; fish are active along points and in open water. Once the sun is up, drop-shot rigs, Neko rigs and hula grubs in baitfish, orange crusher, or green are producing in 5–20 feet near bottom. Crappie are stacking near docks, submerged brush and rock piles, and small live minnows or mini jigs catch them. Catfish anglers are doing well on cut mackerel, sardines, or chicken liver. CDEC has the lake at 764.6 ft, 205,083 AF (54% of capacity) on Jun 24 (NCM).
Lake San Antonio
Bass are biting best early morning on crankbaits and jerkbaits in the shallows. The reaction bite shuts down once the sun climbs, so switch to drop-shot Roboworms or small shad plastics worked tight to structure or along depth changes through midday.
