one of the lakes I think of when I consider where to go to throw TROUT PLUGS. I presume they've begun stocking rainbows there again this year? I'm beginning to doubt whether they'll stock Lexington this year, with the water being so low. I guess the place I've seen the most info about planting schedules is in Western Outdoor News, or maybe the weekly Mercury News or SF Chronicle Outdoors/Fishing Reports sections (they're easier -- they're accessible on the WEB!). I'll have to take a look there to see what's up.

Speaking of trout plugs, though: I'm **considering** ordering a couple of Osprey 'Talons' off that UMAXCO website. 'Cher' responded to my e-mail yesterday, saying that they have the 9" 'light rainbows' in stock ($19.99 a pop). All I gotta do is yank out 'the card' (again!)! I just bought the 8" (9"?) Optimum rainbow bait at the ISE show, but you guys know how **vulnerable** I am when I see a hot, new bait! (Gotta have it!!!!)

('Course, there're plenty of OLD 'new' baits that I have yet to catch a fish on! I'm gonna have to buy a **500-lb** capacity kickboat to be able to carry all this $h%# out with me!). :-)


I'll keep you posted!
