Reports good salmon fishing. In the East Bay, productive locations include the South Bank, along the Old Mission Peninsula from Willow Point to the Walls, near Yuba and Elk Rapids. Fish are hitting on Hootchie Mama's or Spin-doctors with flies in green, white or silver. Blue, green and orange spoons have also worked well when trolling 60 to 80 feet down in waters 110 to 140 feet deep. A good number of lake trout have also been caught. In the West Bay, try fishing near the Hole, Red Buoy 8, off the Gravel Pit and in Suttons Bay.
