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.

Great catches, Matt!
I love Vaqueros for trout and striper fishing. The only thing I do not like is that I cannot take my kayak out on the water there. I always catch my limit of trout and stripers there. The other thing I like about Vaqueros is the fish taste better from there because that water is a lot cleaner than the Delta or other waterways that are fed by irrigation dump off.

Most of the stripers in Vaqueros are transplants from Clifton Forebay (moved when the algae level gets toxic). They're also moved to Bethany Reservoir.

Great pic my man can you take a boat on Vaqueros with gas engine
Nope -- only rental electrics. I don't know about kayaks but I've never seen any.

Did DF&W ever say how many Whale deaths are caused by trap lines in that area?
Not that I've seen but I haven't really looked.

No on the cartoons.
Yes, on the Shetland -- I also remember a donkey painted like a zebra.

I really like the CDFW Newsletter (comes as an email--usually only 1 or 2 a month). Makes it easier to keep up with the reg changes especially with all of the closures.
There is a spot at the bottom of the page if you want to sign up.

I sailed on folsom lake for 20 years. I sold my sail boat and have a pontoon boat now. I would appreciate guidance about where to fish, bait/lures and reports from Folsom Lake. David, a 84 YO fisherman to be!
I can't give you any 1st-hand advice about Folsom but I've had good luck using Fish-n-Maps when I can't get any local info (hopefully you will)...
