Spring weather and temp's are cool in Big Bear, there is great fresh water trout fishing right
now in Big Bear Lake. Expect the trout bite to continue for sometime as the lake temperature
continues to drop at night.  

Thinking about what to do this Weekend?  Bring your fishing pole, family and friends and
come "Teach a Worm to Swim" on the lake!  With over 22 mile of shoreline to fish from, and
with our winter storms, Big Bear Lake is at full water capacity with makes for some great
fishing.

Local Big Bear resident Al caught this nice 3  lb trout off the North Shore (near the dam) using
Rainbow Powerbait.  The shore fishing at Big Bear Lake has been good, but windy!  This past
week Powerbait (Rainbow color) has been producing the best fishing on-shore!

Spring fishing conditions in Big Bear Lake are Excellent!

The trout fishing has been excellent this week with many limits of trout.  Winter fishing in Big Bear Lake is continuing to
produce large size trout all around the lake.  Myself and my friend caught 8 nice size trout (catch & released) at
Lagonita Point from the shore.  Fishing is excellent from all spots and locations in Big Bear Lake.  For trout fishing Big
Bear Lake is currently the best spot for fishing in Southern California, as well as the lake being at total water capacity.  
The water temp is currently 40 degrees and the bite is still on the rise making for great trout fishing.  Some of the more
active fishing spots this week have been basically the North Shore.
