DEER ARE ON THE MOVE
DRIVE SLOWLY AND SAFELY AND KEEP A LOOK-OUT!

Summer has definitely arrived at Lake Sabrina – temps in the mid-70’s with a slight breeze and a few fluffy white clouds drifting by. The bare Aspen are now quaking, the CrabApple and Red Delicious Apple trees are blooming as soon will be the wildflowers. And the biggest, the Lake is on the rise (coming up about 2 feet every 24 hours) – the water is about 15’ feet up on the launch ramp – so for you private boaters it’s back-up season time when launching. Water actually hit the launch ramp during the night of Thursday, June 2.

Lots of limits coming out of the Lake this past week. NightCrawlers, Salmon Eggs, PowerBait and Jigs are all working at the Inlets. Drifting NightCrawlers in the channels or by the rock piles. Trolling is still on the slow slide, buy you might try a Red and Gold Thomas Buoyant. Shore fishing with NightCrawlers, PowerBait or just tossing a Lure. Sean Anderson of Menifee picked up a 2-1/2 pounder using a Tasmanian Devil. Friends, Bill Woodruff of Corona and Jarrett Hale of Canyon Lake had a fine dinner by using a Silver and Red Polka Dot Thomas Buoyant. Lindsey Einstoss and Matt Rauch caught their first Lake Sabrina fish.

The Lake Sabrina Café is open seven days a week:
Breakfast 7:00am – 11:00am
Lunch 11:00am – 4:00pm
and our store hours are: 7:00am to 7:00pm

Fishing etiquette is becoming a bit of a problem at the Lake and we don’t like problems. If you come upon someone fishing, please don’t fish right next to them – take a bit of hike farther down and don’t cast over into their spot. Same at the Inlet, there are so many areas to fish on this Lake go find another ‘soon to be’ favorite spot.

The snow is slowly melting on the backcountry trails, but in the north facing areas you may run into some pretty deep drifts, great for post-holing up to your thigh. George Creek is gushing over Blue Lake trail – stay safe out there. Remember to leave a note about your destination and approximate return time and a clothing description. And you might want to hike with a buddy.

The House Wrens are back and busy making a nest in the weather station area outside the front door. Sure is nice listening to their songs.

The new crop of skeeters are out and with the return of the favorite little pest, when using the bug juice, try not to get it on your hands – you’ll transfer it to your bait and the fish just don’t like bug juice or sunscreen or lotion or cologne or perfume. Wash your hands in the stream or Lake to get it off, and then use some fish attractant on your hands. If you’re coming to the Lake, don’t forget sunscreen and dark glasses –the snow and sun makes it pretty bright against the blue sky. DON’T FORGET THAT JACKET.

Temps are expected to remain in the upper 70s at the Lake for the week dropping to the upper 60’s over the weekend. The lows are forecasted to be in the mid-40’s during the week and drop to the upper 30’s by the weekend. You can check out the weather forecast according to Howard our local weather ‘guesser’ at www.MammothWeather.com (http://mammothweather.com/). You can also check out www.weather.gov (http://www.weather.gov/) – enter Aspendell, CA (which is the little community right below Lake Sabrina) in the search field and you’ll get the forecast for at the higher elevation. You may need to scroll down on the webpage to see the temps.

The fishing report will coming out next Tuesday as Rick and I will be out of town on Monday.

I have a question regarding the comment above - "George Creek is gushing over Blue Lake trail – stay safe out there." My buddy and I are backpacking one night this week and our back up location is the Sabrina basin. We have not been there before. So will we find it difficult to cross George Creek to access the basin with the snow melt being what it is right now? Thanks!
