Fished pyramid wednesday and saturday.On wednesday they had planted trout a day or two ago so the bite was mile a minute,caught 20 in about an hour or less.Then went out on the boat for a few more hours and caught many stripers,none of them over 2.5 pounds.On saturday I fished outside the launch ramp for trout,though the bite wasn't as good as wednesdays I managed about 15 in about 4 hours and kept 5.
I heard from a friend that was up there on Friday that someone got a 35 pounder in the marina. The guys that I know were trolling the channel and got a couple that were in the 15 pound class.
The stripers are hitting on anchovies halfway between the dam and the island.Just use a hook and an anchovie with a slipshot for weight about a foot and a half from the hook.And let the bait get down about 20feet or more.
That's good to hear someone got a big striper,that's a sleeper lake for the big boys.There has to be some huge trout eaters around.Were your friends trolling trout or shad imitations?
Been debating between there and silverwood and a few other lakes every weekend,so many trout plants so little time to fish!!!
Thanks Shane and good luck with the big fish from Castaic,there has to be a 20+ lurking around!!

anyone have any info on renting a boat at Pyramid? My buddy and I want to charge up there next week, fish the stripes and hopefully smallies- hate the rental boat thing but that is our only option next week- thanks for the info probably the article in the OC Register today will have it nice and crowded next weekend? We are shooting for the week after-
