Shasta has been producing good topwater fishing for Spost all day. Jones Valley and all of the dead trees are the best producing locations. Slam a popper in there, pause, and fish it back towards the boat. ;) A sinking line fished toward the shore so you can bounce a crawdad pattern or baitfish pattern down the banks will also be effective. Bounce a Concussion Cray, Jiggy Worm or Grim Reaper on the rocks or strip the Tui Chub Pyramid Minnow.

Hot Flies:

• Wooly Buggers
• Float-n-Flies
• Dead Drop Minnow
• Zack's Stillwater Balanced Leech
