Fishing in Susanville, California, United States

I practically live at this lake, and if you come to fish it I can almost guarantee ill be there! I know the area around the damn very well and the bass are suckers for most anything you throw, but the trout can sometimes never even make a single appearance since the bass have been stocked around 1 to 2 years ago, it doesn't mean they aren't there though. (most likely too busy running from bass to eat anything without having to spit it and swim for their life.) The pumpkinseed get huge too, my biggest being a 9 1/2 inch slab. Really fun lake. The road is fair, but a few times a year it ends up looking like a washboard. all in all, good bank fishing, but I don't see many people coming to fly fish.
