Central Sierra/ Highway 4 Fishing Report for May 2nd~by Ebbetts Pass Sporting Goods

Fishing season opened April 28th for the rivers and streamsand was a great opener with people catching a lot of fish. Our area will be planted the week of 4/29 by the DFG. Listed plants are The North Fork of the Stanislaus, Beaver Creek, White Pines Lake, and Angels Creek located in Angels Camp. Camping for the opener will be limited to mainly dispersed camping. You must still obtain a fire permit for your campsite. Ebbetts Pass is scheduled to open the week of May 11th. Make sure you purchase your license before heading up here as we are the only store to sell licenses from Arnold up and we do experience problems with our machine occasionally.....



Lake Alpine: Closed due to snow but the ice is starting to break up.



Spicer Res: Gate is open but still too much snow to reach the Lake.. I will let everyone know when they plow the road.



White Pines Lake: Located near Arnold, will be planted the week of 4/29. It was hot fishing this past weekend and you should expect the same this upcoming weekend. Bait casters should try using Garlic Power Eggs, Garlic Power Bait, Gulp Eggs, Gulp Power Bait, inflated,nightcrawlers, on a sliding sinker rig with a 30" leader. Lure fishermen should try Kastmaster's, Panther Martin Spinners, Rooster Tails, or try a fly and Cast-a-bubble combination. Fly fishermen should try woolly buggers, sparrow nymphs, ants, adams, female adams, or bead head nymphs. It is best if you use an intermediate sink line. You will have better success.



North Fork Stanislaus: Will be planted the week of 4/29. Water is a little higher than normal high due to snow melt and recent rain. Lure casters should try Rapala's, Daiwa Minnows, Kastmasters, Panther Martin Spinners, Rooster Tails, Blue Fox, Thomas Bouyant's, and Mepps. Bait fishermen should try nightcrawlers, salmon eggs, and crickets using a splitshot rig. Fly fishermen may have a tough time fishing due to the current. Try bead head woolly buggers, and bead head nymphs. The campground Wa Ka Luu Hep Yoo is closed until the projected opening day of May 18th. Go to www.dreamflows.com to check current flows of the North Fork of the Stanislaus.



Beaver Creek: Will be planted the week of 4/29. Water levels could be higher than normal but still fishable. Fly fishermen should try ants, woolly buggers, bead head nymphs, and humpy's. Lure fishermen should try Panther Martin's, Rooster Tails, Blue Fox spinners, and Mepps spinners. Bait fishermen should try split-shotting nightcrawlers, crickets and salmon eggs.The gate is now open in Big Trees State Park to Beaver Creek.





Make plans now to attend our Annual Father's Day Derby, June 17 2012. It is the chance to catch the fish of a lifetime and fun for all.



We appreciate your patronage and look forward to seeing you.
