Yesterdays brown trout fishing trip was a big success and the bite we've been waiting over a month for finally came to life.  We followed up yesterdays great trip with a low pressure, lack luster bite today.  As has been the case all winter into spring, big weather changes tend to shut down the trout.  We caught some smaller rainbows and managed to catch a nice brown just after mid day.  Big changes always present big challenges on Shasta, but it looks like we are going to see some really warm weather next week.  The lake is still rising so if your launching your boat, bring your rubber boots.  I was welcomed once again to the Packers Bay boat launch with no parking lot lighting and a flooded dock ramp.  Also, rising water means more wood debris heading back into the lake.  Still some big logs/big peices of wood sitting right at the water line.  I found a nice sized log at 35 mph on my way in yesterday.  A little chop on the water makes them very hard to see so be careful out there until we start to see a drop in lake levels again.
