The fish were happy at Bridgeport Reservoir and so were the fishermen

Bridgeport Reservoir - Bridgeport, CA (Mono County)

Bridgeport fished excellent yesterday from tubes and boats. The shore fishing was a bit tough, probably due to the lake being so full.

Surface temps are in the high 50's and the fish are pretty happy. Trolling seemed to be the best bet yesterday, Rapalas, Thomas Bouyants, Needlefish and blades with crawlers all produced lots of fish. Bait anglers who were out in boats also faired well with crawlers and powerbait. I'd say that the rainbow to brown ratio was about 60/40 yesterday. Most of the fish being caught were in the 2 to 4 pound range with a few around 5 lbs.
