I went to Kokanee power's web site and read the article on Berryessa. Heartbreaking. Upon further investigation I believe the person who said they caught Kings was mistaken. I went out last week not to fish but test drive my new boat (2010 Jetcraft) before I mount my down riggers and other gear...

I'm getting reports of limits of kings being caught recently.

Thanks for the reply Super D. I have not heard that. Sad. Berryessa has been in a state of decline for years. It's been painful to watch.

This forum is dead.

Nice fish Pappy! Keep it up, you'll find 'em.

Haven't heard anything this year. Went out last week. Nothing on the screen, no bites, no other boats out. What the heck is going on?

Thanks for the report. Went out last Sat with a friend and got three nice rainbows in the 18" range by the big island. 2 at 25' and one at the surface as I was clipping my line in the downriver release. No Kokes at all.😩 Going out tomorrow with the wife and kids. First time for them at the lake...

Ah, so another case of ignorant law makers making stupid laws to keep ignorant people from doing stupid stuff. I thought that was just a California thing. Thanks.

Hi, just wondered over here from California. I am really curious as to why corn would be illegal? What is the reasoning?

Have to disagree. The wife, kids and I took a ride up to Berryessa over the weekend to check it out. We have not been up there to camp in years since they ran everyone out of there. I heard there had been some changes so we wanted to see where we could possibly take the trailer and the boat to...

I'm a fish, freeze, fish, freeze guy too. It's corn, not sea food. It just needs to stay on the hook and give the fish something to focus on. I'm sure depth, lure, lure action, boat speed, location, time of day, planet alignment ect all have more to do with catching fish than corn freshness.

Got the boat all cleaned up this weekend just in time for the rain. sigh. I'll have to wait another week then I'm playing hooky and hitting the lake. Thanks for the report!

I over slept and didn't get in the water till about 8. On a tip I headed straight for Ranch House/ Big Island area. Dropped lines in front of Goat Island thinking I'd work my way around to the Big Island. Within 3 minutes had the craziest fighting fish I've ever caught. He was all over the...

I just dangle my feet in the water. Leaves a scent trail the fish can't resist.

Thanks, that's where I thought Skiers cove was just wasn't sure. I usualy launch out of capell. Hoping the wind will die out this week. Last week was pretty windy. I read Gary Maralles (Shasta Tackle) Went out last week and it was so windy they stayed in Markely cove and fished. Caught some...

I've been working long hours and not fishing. Thurs the 25th is my B-day (47) and I'm going fishing damn it! Any tips or advise? Where at and what depth? And I am embarrassed to say as many times as I've been to Berryessa I don't know where Skiers Cove is. Can someone tell me?

Hate to thread jack, but while we are talking batteries I'd like to know a couple things. I have a starting battery and a trolling battery. Is it possible to hook the two together so when the engine is running the alternator will charge the trolling battery? Or should these two different...

Hey Super Dave, that crowd might have been due too the fact that I saw that the DFG was planting today. Also they planted the last couple of weekends too. And I like those fish hangers you got there. Did you have those made or can one get those somewhere? I'd like to get something like that for...

Wow! Glad to see you guys hooking up. The wife had a great idea today to go out in the boat. She and the kids (2 and 3 years old) have never been in my boat. Wanted to go to Berryessa but thought the twisty road might be too much for the kids, so we decided to go to Hennessey insted. A bit...

I've watched the one with the guy who is the Pres. of Kokanee Power fishing at Berryessa about 4 times now. It says he has won more Koke turnies than anyone. I hope he is still not competing. I can't help but feel he has an unfair advantage and there is a conflict of interest there. The guy who...
