On my previous outing i had luck fishing salmon peach powerbait with about a 2-3 foot leader.
Honeslty any powerbait color should work out there,
Dont be afraid to throw out a jig either catch those curious trout swimming around

also try using cheese powerbait, salmon egg powerbait and garlic flavored power bait. I found these to be the best. 2-3 foot leader sounds about right. Also best place for trout is the northshore. Good luck!

I have the best luck with the gulp garlic scent varieties - chunky cheese, chartreuse and rainbow candy as well as inflated nightcrawlers(broken in half). 2-3 ft leader as mentioned above is usually best.

Hey guys,
One more quick question. I love the stream fishing are there any good streams to fish in big bear that aren't a tough hike? As I said I am taking the family a wife and a 7 yr old girl. they love the streams as I do and I would love to put them on some quality fish.

Sorry for the late reply, I was up on the weekend of Feb 21-22 only caught one. Nice size, didn't put a lot of pressure on one spot though moved around checking out the lake. Caught at the dam. Will post pictures later.
