man's. Anglers had good luck
in the streams, using various
flies including mayfly imita-
tions in size 14 to 18, black
copper johns and olive crys-
tal buggers.
Shore fishing has been
good at Big Cove, French-
man's boat landing and also
at the north end of the lake.
The lake is starting to turn,
so the fish are coming closer
to the surface.
Most bank anglers are us-
ing night crawlers. Some
anglers are tipping their
night crawlers with marsh-
mallows to float them off the
bottom. Others are inflating
them.
Trolling has been good
near the dam and to the east,
of the dam and north of
Lunker's Point.
The fall colors are great up
through the Canyon and
along the streams. Take a dri-
ve up to Frenchman Lake
and enjoy the views.

Stream fishing
This is a great time of year
to hit the streams. The Octo-
ber caddis, a favorite trout
food, is hatching. There are
also good hatches of blue
wing olive mayflies, midges
and stoneflies. And the fall
colors are at their peak.

"If all politicians fished in-
stead of spoke publicly, we
would be at peace with the
world."
--Will Rogers
The fall weather brings
lower water temperatures
that shake the fish out of
their summer doldrums.
Winter is not too far off, so
the fish instinctively eat
more to build up their fat
stores to sustain them
through the cold weather to
come.
The fall colors will most
certainly add to a great day
in the outdoors. So pack a
picnic, grab your camera and
fishing gear, and head out for
a gorgeous fall day.
Lake Almanor
Fishing is picking up at
Lake Almanor, especially in
the east basin.
Local guide Doug Neal of
Almanor Fishing Adventures
(258-6732) reports that
browns, rainbows and
salmon are all feeding on the
pond smelt.
The pond smelt are on the
move and the trout and
salmon are following them. A
spot that fishes well one day
may be slow then next due to
the fish moving so much.
Doug recommends the fol-
lowing areas as the most con-
sistent producers lately. But
if you are not seeing fish,
move on.
Prattville: Bait-fish near
the jetties, or the towers. Try
white tube jigs, and trolled
night crawlers rigged 30 feet
deep.
Rec. No. 2: Fish 100 yards
outside the log boom with
white tube jigs.
A-Frame: Fish anchovies
for salmon in 50 feet of water.
Add some Pro-cure Herring
gel.
Big Springs: Try suspended
bait four feet offthe bottom
for salmon and browns.
Hamilton Branch: Troll
this area with 1/6-ounce
Speedy Shiners in white with
• red polka dots or silx, er with
hammer finish. Or try No. 2
needlefish in the "Real Im-
age" pattern. Remember the
fish are after smelt -- any-
thing that looks like a smelt
can get hit these days.
Lake Davis
Lake Davis has been fish-
ing very well lately. The lake
has turned over and water
temperatures are around 55
degrees. The lake is still 78
percent full.
Frenchman Lake
The weather has been
great for fishing at French-
