I've only been to the Welty Gate (see map below). Welty crosses Hwy 132.

Drifted cut anchovies on the bottom just below the gate -- caught one striper and one cat the only time I've been this year. Done well there almost every time I've been there.

The intake for both canals are roughly 10 miles NW of Tracy near the SW corner of the Delta.
