Shasta Lake

I fished Shasta Lake yesterday and had a slower day than the past few days this week.  The Lake is 106' feet down and water temps are currently 50-51 degrees.  The rainbow and brown trout fishing is hit and miss, but thats normal for this time of the year.  We're averaging 6-7 trout daily with a few in the 3-5 lb...
