Clear Lake fishing report for 7-10-22

Lake conditions: Water Clarity in the Clearlake oaks arm was good visibility was about 3 feet. Redbud arm visibility was not great.  It was murky with green algae.

Water temp: 75.1
Outside temp: 92 degrees
 
We launched out of Clearlake’s oaks this morning at 6 am. We started on the Clearlake Oaks arm working reaction baits and the wife was throwing a drop shot. No bites in 30 minutes then moved to the red bud arm.  I started off working a jerk bait with no bites.  Switched to a 5 inch black senko and immediately landed a 2 1/2 lb largemouth.  We switched to the drop shot and they began chewing.  We caught half dozen then moved to our next spot.  Again I tried fast moving reaction baits and nothing by 10:30 am.  I went back to the drop shot and they came alive again.  This patterned remained most of the day until about 1:30 pm.  I started paralleling the rock shoreline with the jerk bait and Hallelujah back-to-back 3 pounders.  The patterned today was rubber presentation. We caught probably 25 bass in the 2 to 3 pound range.  I believe if we stayed into the 4-5 pm time slot the reaction bite would have kicked in.  All I can say is I was very happy to figure out the jerk bait bite pattern in the afternoon.  Hope this information helps you on your next trip out.
