Jim Matthew's Picks of the Week
1. While the bite is probably not going to be as good as this past week because of the moon phase, the spring spawn is starting for largemouth bass and one of the best spots will continue to be Casitas Lake. No, you can’t launch your own boat here because of the fear of quagga mussels, and the rental boats are going fast every day. But the fish are up and the bite is one. Call the marina at 805-649-2043 for an up-to-the-minute update and check on the availability of rentals.
2. Diamond Valley Lake kicked into high gear this past week for largemouth bass, but a changing moon and cooler weather will likely lull the bass bite here. It is still one of the best picks in the region for bass. Lots of quality fish this past week. For updates, check with the marina staff at 951-926-7201 or the folks at Last Chance Bait & Tackle in Hemet at 951-658-7410.
3. San Vicente really kicked on for bass this past week as the fish moved in tight for the spawn. Lots of small males are being caught right now, but fishing the outside points has produced some bigger fish over four pounds. Vicente is only open on weekends.
