The Stripers have been good to me lately. Lures have been the bait of choice. The cats are hitting them once in awhile too. Must be the spawn...who knows??? Just was surprised to reel in a whiskerfish or two jiggin'. Lots of fun. 777

I havent caught a catfish out of the aqueduct on a lure yet, but I have caught 20 pound cats on 12" trout plugs at some of the local lakes.

It's off the 138 before you get to Littlerock.
If I was you I would try the stretch that dumps into Silverwood lake. It's closer to you.

Since I'm in San Jose I fish the aqeducts from San Luis up to Byron. The cats were caught in the Delta Mendota which I'm not positive streches out as far south to your neck of the woods. I believe the California Aqueduct does. Anyway, I'm going out tomorrow morning for a couple of hours and hopefully will hook-up like crazy. 777

Damn! Woke up bright and early to hit up the cement river with great expectations. Well, they shut the pumps and the water was at a stand -still. Boy was it tough fishin'today. Five hours and only one Striper. No taps, followers,etc. It was as slow as an old dog takin' a dump! The fish-traps are being replaced and won't be done by mid-May, hopefully. Until then no water-flow which means TOUGH fishin'!!! They gotta eat! Not today I guess. Well, at home catchin' a buzz 'cause I coudn't catch any fish!!! Hugs & kisses, James. 777

Hey Bank Pounder,
I actually stopped by that spot a couple weeks ago (when it rained on me). Didn't have any luck though, weather was too rough. Do you ever fish the next bridge to the West. You know, the one on "S" where the handicap access is? It looked pretty good to me, but it's still a little tight... I took a little page out of your book when I was at the bridge after you turn left at the stop sign though...Had my little humminbird smartcast, and was checking out the bottom structure...have you ever figured out what that is on the bottom when you're on the South side of that bridge. I kept getting a reading like there was a shelf there or something, with a couple fish under it...do you get the same result? If you're not sure what I'm talking about, when you're at the bridge on the South side and you're looking towards the water...you go about 10-15 yards to your left...once you're there...about 15-20 feet out is where I was seeing that shelf...Are my batteries low, or am I really seeing that? If that shelf is really there, I figure I'd let my bait drift right under it, and see what happens...If I'm on crack and have just rambled on for nothing, please ignore this post...but, if I'm right...please let me know so I can put my mind at ease...I keep visualizing that spot in my sleep...hahahaha...
Oh, by the way...the wife didn't let me out the other night...so, I wasn't able to make it..."The Man" doesn't trip on you for fishing the aqueduct at night, right? Just checking, I don't want to end up getting busted. I guess I'm too used to the lower lake at Castaic...I guess I've spent too many long nights out there under the stars...I've gotten so used to fishing at night (and sometimes tubing)...I end up wanting to fish anywhere at night.
Well...that's enough out of me...sorry for unloading thoughts 'n questions that've been stewing for a few weeks now...
Tight lines 'n bent rods to all!!!

Thank you very much Fisher...that's good news 'cuz nights are pretty much the safest bet that my wife will let me out...She's learned that if I take off at 3:00am, and say that I'll be home sometime in the early afternoon...she isn't going to see me until about 5:30pm...you can't put a clock on a guy when he's "in the zone." hehehe...So, now she just says "...go ahead>>>" when I tell her that I'm takin' off fishin' for the night...she also knows me well enough to realize,,,I'd rather be fishing than wasting time & money with "someone else." So, she knows I'll keep myself out of trouble when I'm out wettin' my lines...maybe I'll be seein' some of y'all out there one of these days/nights...If ya see a 6 foot tall, skinny, big eared 1/2 breed Japanese guy out there or a '91 Honda Accord at Barrel Springs, 82nd, or along Ave. S...gimme a holler, even if you're not interested how the fishing is...at least check to make sure I didn't fall in or something...I guess that's the one disadvantage to having eyes like this...vertical vision isn't too good...hahahahaha
Have a good one y'all,
P.S. - Anyone heard from Bankpounder regarding the "mystery-shelf?"

Hey Bank Pounder,
Sorry for not thanking you sooner...I haven't had much time on my hands lately...Had a little bit of a scare on Tuesday (05/04) at work...Was talkin' fishin' with one of the other guys there, and got a little bit of a head rush as I stood up. I don't really remember standing up, but according to the guy I was talking to...I went down like a tree. I didn't even put my hands out. Anyway, to make a long story short. I woke up about half an hour later later in the emergency room, and was all busted up. I look like I got hit by a truck. The "quacks" are still trying to figure out what happened to me, but I'm sure I"ll be back out there again soon. After that little spill, the wife doesn't think standing on the bank of the cement river is too good an idea. I hate to say it, but I actually agree with her this time. A little bit of recovery time and I'll be back out wettin' my lines. Thanks for the info. Bank Pounder...Now, I've just gotta get my "nugget" fixed so I can get back out there with ya. The weather's been perfect too...It really sucks being all locked up like this...Anyway, hopefully the fish have been good to y'all, and I'll be joining you soon...

In response to Dylan if the aqueducts are pumping water this weekend I'll definitely be going. The last time I hit the aqueducts in April they were replacing the fish-nets at the pumping station which means no water flow and very tough fishing for me. I did manage one keeper but it was caught on frozen shad which I don't frequently use since I prefer to use lures 99% of the time. Anyway, if I do go (water moving) I'll let y'all know how badly I whooped the Stripers. 777
