Boating is a good choice. I like the eastern side arm. I think that is Cleghorn? Not really sure. I have caught cats, bass, & trout there. Also, I hear the Crappie bite can get real good sometimes, but, I don't know when cause I never tried. They say near the docks. The guys at the bait store proclaim this. Try calling the boat rental place for better info on this. I don't know the # for the boat rental place, but, I do know some others that might help you get the #. Ranger office (760) 389-2303 & Camping reservations (800) 444-7275. Hope this helps.

For trout i used 4 lb. test, a gold Kastmaster, & a Panther Martin (i think that was a bee color - yellow/black). It was also A.M. time. Go when they start stocking trout again. The 1 & only bass i caught there was on a little shad imitation (Castaic soft bait) off some point. I casted far and let it hit bottom, then worked slow w/ little finess. I used an Abu Garcia rod & Shimano reel w/ 10 lb. test for the bass. I am not a bass fisherman, though. For the cats, I used nightcrawlers dipped in some attractant & mackeral. Fished before sundown & after from shore. Cats & trout are my favorite choice for fishing. I suck at fishing for bass.

Man you have the best of all worlds within 1-2hours.
Castaic, Pyramid, Casitas, Piru and Silverwood. For the summer I would check out Silverwood. Castaic would be my first choice for sunfish, trout and Bass.

Castaic would be my first choice from where you are at....otherwise Pyramid , Casitas or Piru. For whatever you're fishing for, use nightcrawlers with a light split-shot rig....you'll catch all kinds of different stuff. For lures, try 4.5 in. Lt. Oxblood Roboworms or small spinnerbaits, minnow jerkbaits. Gerryjig out

4-6lb. test on a Lt. spinning outfit and if you can, fish with as light of a weight as possible so you don't hang up as much fishing uphill from the bank.Let a nightcrawler sit or like a plastic worm , pull in super-slow and keep it on the bottom.....good luck! Gerryjig out

Hey Dilbert. It is kinda tuf as a starter. Especially starting with Castaic. Bass fisherman love the place. Although, you gotta have a boat & fish-finder to be more more successful at bass. Plus alot of different lures to choose from (colors, spinners, crankbaits, poppers, plastics, etc.). Trout are just not active right now due to the high temps. They are usually real deep & not very active there. Stripers are more active during Fall. When temps change from hot to cold. A couple of weeks of cooler weather are necessary for water temps to start changing. Then the stripers are on the prowl. Some people can catch stripers now in deep water, but it is really more tuff. Catfish are active now. Blue cats are more so at night. Channel cats can be caught during a.m. or p.m. Right now it is catfish season! Easy shore fishing sometimes. Try Irvine Lake at evening hours. It's $16.00 no fishing license required. Or try Silverwood at Cleghorn. Fish as deep as you could from shore. Use small pieces of Mackeral or thread a nightcrawler through a #2 hook & use some Berkley catfish scent. Castaic seems to be a little tuffer for cats cause there is mostly blue cats there (nocturnal feeders). Hope this helps! Fish on dude!

The cats at Silverwood vary in size like 2 lbs. to 12 lbs and alot bigger. Sunfish, like bluegill or redear types. Use mealworms or bits of nightcrawlers (1 1/2 in. the biggest). Small hooks: size 6 or smaller. Catfish use size 2 hooks for nightcrawlers. You can fish for catfish from shore even at Silverwood (Cleghorn).
