I haven't posted in a while, so hopefully this goes well. Every year around Thanksgiving I go up north for a fishing/Thanksgiving trip. This year was about 45 minutes from New Melones Lake. I had never even heard of this place before I had gone. After reading numerous reports, all of which talked of great fishing, I was excited. I brought my tube and all my trout gear. I was planning to do more fishing today, but I was only able to get in about 2 hours of fishing this morning. Fishing wasn't great, but the lake was awesome. I caught a spottie within 1/2 an hour of arrival, so the trip was a success. It seemed as though there were boils every few seconds, which was pretty cool; however, I didn't catch any boil fish.

Caught on my favorite, a dropshotted powerworm.
Anyone ever fish here? I'm probably gonna go out again soon and I want to know what works.
