Hey guys,

Got out to Lake Sherwood once again. Overall a consistent bite all morning on the senko. But did get my first topwater fish on the popper. Had a great time out there, it was overcast and no wind. Just a beautiful morning for bass fishing, and I caught 12 fish myself. My buddy and I totaled 20 fish in 4 hours.

Heres the link to our video:

Grew up fishing on Sherwood. 1972-1981. It was my favorite and memories are for life. My dad would drop me off in the morning on his way to work and pick me up at the gate in the afternoon . Loved every day.
Best areas back then were near the fire station, the dam, and the docks on lower lake road.
It's all different now.
Even the feeder creek near the old marina area had nice holdover trout and the fish would spill over into westlake and that was awesome as well. Great times.

yeah no water flows out of the dam. The marinas have a lot of fish. No more trout plants either, I love when I get access to the Lake. Sounds like it was a paradise back then as well. Sounds like a great place to learn how to fish.

Fished there a lot in the 70's. Caught many bass from Bob Denver's dock (Giligan from "Giligans Island).

The rental boats were wooden rowboats...I do miss rowing around that beautiful little lake catching crappie and bass.

If that's the lake I'm thinking of, I recall fishing there for trout and using velveeta cheese for bait too! Did that place have a floating bridge that went across the lake?

Crappie Mike,

No perch in the lake. Lots of 1-2lb bluegill.

Do you need any special permit to fish there? I know it's a private lake, and I've heard security is pretty tight there (same with Westlake Lake). I'm getting back into fishing and live in the Agoura area and was looking for some local fishing spots to hit up this summer.

@CrappieMike - There are also Redears in the lake and they get massive. Unfortunately the tules are there only real cover. The lake is pretty much devoid of brush piles like in the old days

And if you had a gas engine you had to row or use electric until 8am

Got ya all beat!
Fished there with my Dad in the 50s.
The road came in through a grove of trees and picnic area to the rental dock and tackle shop. They had several very large bluegill mounted on the wall and IIRC one was over 3 lbs. We used a 1942 Johnson OB, rope start, on those wooden rowboats that I still have, that my Dad bought new before WWII. One of the best memories I have is fishing at that lake with him. Then in HS I would drive there and fish a little hold over pool along the road before we got to the entrance to the lake. It was a sad day for me when it went private. I'd love to go out on that water just one more time for old times sake.
Along with that we went to June Lake every year for 2 weeks. That is still "home" for me. The only place I feel really "at home" with the memories. He went there the first time in 1925 (he was 21) out of downtown LA in a Model T. 3 days of driving a dirt trail to get there. Average fish was 5 lbs!
