Went there two weeks ago and it was the slowest day of my life

Only launch ramp that was opened was GLORY HOLE way down there make shift ramp

Water level was way low
With all the influx of water it’s been getting I’m sure the fishing will be a lot harder.
Good luck and if you go let me know what you finds out so I don’t have to drive from Manteca to check it out

Thanks

I found this today. New Melones is coming up but there will be a lot of crud in the water. I have to think it is launchable but I haven't been there in probably a year or more. With gas as high as it was and the lake as low as it was, didn't want to spend $60 to be disappointed. I can be disappointed right near home. Anyway the link is about Cal reservoirs levels. It is changing fast, we've got another big storm imminent and more coming. My little creek behind my house was raging. The other pic is some of the debris in Bass Lake. https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/california-reservoir-water-levels-before-and-after-rain/ar-AA168z4q?cvid=5f78aba1baf04d4792cb485ea4598ee9

I'm sure on all these lakes we will have have to be careful for awhile!!
I remember the last drought we had , and the big storms we had after that New Melonies had logs floting and large Branches moving in the lake so all I can is becareful don't drive fast and at the end of the day check your lower unit we had to clean the port holes they were full of tiny debrea we had to clean.

One of my favorite lakes !!! There's a WaterFalls going up river on the left that when there's water running is one of the most beautiful Falls I've ever seen. I can only imagine what it looks like now with all this water now and the lake being so low !!! I may just run up there when it stops raining just to see it again and take plenty of pic's and a Video too !!!
