I hit up lake chabot as often as I can. Mainly fish from the bank and hit up spots between alder point and the boat house. I’ve had luck and have caught some good size bass but also get skunked plenty. Not sure when or where they spawn and I thought this platform wouldn’t be a bad place for bass fisherman to communicate and share current and local info about the lake. WDYT?

Fishing at McLaren is risky it’s not legal usually park rangers come around 5 pm to close the gate for parking but the park is still open the upper reservoir pond is not bad for fishing and we caught a large mouth bass in under 20 minutes but they are little dinks not a lot over 2 pounds and at the duck pond there are carp but in the upper pond there are blue gill I believe and bass also people don’t mind u fishing
