DVL & Lake Poway???

Mark C. · Jul-08-2009, 01:00 AM

Anyone been bass fishing in either of these lakes lately?!? Going to Lake Poway on Thursday fishing from shore and DVL on Friday fishing from boat. Any info would be much appreciated especially any info on DVL as it will be my first time...

DVL: If you're new to the lake, target 25 - 35 feet of water on the secondary points and main lake points using a drop shot with 6" robo worms (MM III or morning dawn are traditionally decent colors). Fishing the dams are also a good bet. Early morning, you can also try pitching senko's in cover (wacky rig any of the natural colors like green/watermelon or pumpkin seed). This should be a good start and always catches me fish this time of year at DVL.....

Caught 9 on Poway last Friday. All on 6 inch robo worms (sexy shad color). Biggest was 8lbs. Caught 7 in the morning last bite was at noon then nothing for 4 hours. Then picked up two more.

By boat on DVL you mean rental right? No launching yet due to low water.

Thanks for the info man I really appreciate it

I don't normally fish for bass from boat but I'm going with my girlfriend and a couple of friends so we decided to just rent a boat but I was wondering if all these spots are accessable from shore? I live pretty close by and from what I've heard its a great lake and I'm sure I'll be doing a lot of fishing there the rest of summer.

Yes I mean rental, I don't usually like fishing from boat in lakes anyway but I'm going with some friends. But when launching is available feel free to take me with you anytime
