The department of fish and game will most likely not be stocking the lake until the fall season. DFG stocked the upper lake on Wednesday June 18th with rainbow trout and the lower lagoon was stocked on Monday June 15th. With the big warm-up we had this week the stripers showed signs of slowing down. Its sitll a very good bait bite on anchovies back by the Fore bay buoyline and off the main dam. The swim bait bite is till not that impressive but there is still some action out there. The largemouth bass bite is doing very well even with this recent warm-up. Night crawlers, Plastic and small shad baits are still doing great on the points and in the backs of the coves. It seems to be best mid morning for the largemouth. Around 101:00 am till 1:00 pm is when most people are catching most of their bass. As far as the lower lake goes, the largemouth are also doing very well unfortunately it\'s the guys in the float tubes and the guys with boats who are getting the better fish. It has been a really good live bait bite for the shore fisherman, night crawlers and crawdads will still hook you up on a nice sized largemouth. The pan fish bite at both lakes has slowed down but there are still a few people catching them using mealworms and small pieces of anything just small enought to fit in their mouths. The next moonlight fishing will take place on Saturday July 11th at 8:00 pm at the Upper Lake on the main ramp. The next moonlight float- tube tournament will take place at the lagoon on July 10th from 6 OM till midnight. For more information on teh moonlight fishing please visit Castaiclaek.com
