We are about 70 miles from Modesto, depending what side you go on. So Modesto Lake I would say maybe 40 50 miles. Do they keep that lake full like they do Tullock and McSwain? I seen you caught some smallies, thought you caught them in Don Pedro . McClure, Pedro , and McSwain are just closer.
They do let water out but not like the other lakes. It is a drinking water Res 🚰. It is a shallow Res. And with you boat you have to watch the depth of the water. They stock it with Trout and I have caught some nice ones !!
And it is not fished that hard. You can drive around 3/4 of the Res.
I enjoy fishing the lake it is about 30 to 45min from where I live in Modesto.
It is a hidden fishery.
I'd be glad to meet you their some time . Never fished for cats there but I'm sure they are there. Have caught Blue gills and 1crappie at the lake.
