Shasta Lake Solar and Lunar Conditions
Current Lunar Fishing Tip:
New Moon fishing can be at its best. The gravitational pull on the earth is at its peak when the moon and sun are rising and setting at the same time of day. This combination can generate extraordinary fishing opportunities especially if combined with perfect weather variances. The new moon may have the fish extremely aggressive and actively hunting for food. Try fishing a little faster today and with several different baits and techniques. When fish are more aggressive, its always fun to fish a little more aggressive. Watch the peak fishing times and make sure you are on the water during that part of the day to take full advantage of today?s solar/lunar peaks. Have a great day!

What's This
Catfish
The catfish family comprises of blue catfish, flathead catfish and channel catfish. Since catfish are warm water fish, they aren’t going to be very active in this water temperature. They will still be feeding, but catfish will only be found very deep and feeding very slowly. Your best bet is give some of the more active fish species in your lake a shot until the cats are active again.




Shasta Lake Current Weather
Temperature: 46

Barometric Pressure: 29.78 (Normal)
With the barometric pressure normal it’s time to practice on some new fishing techniques. Don’t get set on one type or specific bait. Experiment different retrieves, speeds and depths. The fishing may not be excellent, but finding a good fishing pattern can result in a excellent day on the water. When you find something that works when the barometric pressure is normal, you should be able to duplicate enough to have an excellent day of fishing.

Wind Speed: West at 05 Knots (6 MPH)
