The Caples Lake Marina and boat launch are closed for the season. They do still have rental cabins and will be opening the restaurant soon. I was told the public ramp will be removed this week for launching. If you want to do some shore fishing, go down by the spillway and toss an inflated nightcrawler or throw a gold Kastmaster. For more information, go to capleslakeresort.com or call 209-258-8888.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
