PHISHuntR .
Did you have a chance to go to Pyramid today ? Congrat on your catch .
Khanh .

nope ...... couldnt make it today but i will be huntin it very soon. heard there was trout plant yeserday so that should start movin those big dudes!.. they really like that flowing water too. have you fished the big plugs up their with any sucess? the schoolies on 4lb are fun but nothin can compare to those BIG DOGS! be sure to let you know when i do go. i really want to hear a report too!!.. KEEP EM BENT!!!!

PHISHuntR

Hey PHISHuntR,can you fish there at night?And do they plant at the main ramp,i would asume so but i havent been that far up the hill,yet.
Thanks...

Sliverwood or Pyramid?.wood closes the gate at 7...you can walk down from the top or the campgrounds and fish all night... i heard from several other BIG stripe hunters that this is the time to be there....after dark is when it all goes down! i would be cool to get a tube(or yak) in there after dark.....would keep ya away from the bears but then youd be dangleing your legs down their for that VW bus size catfish to grab! :D as far as Pyramid i have no clue...

PHISHuntR . When you were at Silverwood & saw some huge boiling and recently at Cleghorn were you on a boat or shore fishing ? I'm thinking about making a long drive to the Wood if i can cast to the boiling from shore . What time they open in the morning ? Thanks .
Khanh .

KPN, i was in boat whan they came up crashin... but you can get em from shore. i was only bout 60 yards from shore. a long cast, but ive seen guys throw those plugs damn near 100yrds! they come closer to shore the later it gets.... report said there was a 22lbr taken from shore this week on a plug.... good luck if you do go! let me know how you did.....KEEP EM BENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PHISHuntR .
Would you please give me a detail directions how to get to that shoreline to fish . It been over 15 yrs since the last time i've been up there . I know how to get to the lake but don't know much what shoreline to fish with . If you don't mind .
How late the Lake opens until . 7pm ?
Thanks for your help .
I'll go to Pyramid this Sunday .
Khanh .

when you go through the gate you make the first left follow that all the down to the end.this is Cleghorn day use. they dump trout at the hand lauchramp.this whole shorline produces trout for the trout guys all day long. i have caught fish all along the shore both to the left down the bike trail and to the right of the ramp all the way back to the cove. they do shut the gates at 7pm sharp!good luck!

PHISHuntR

ps. if pyramids wide why make the long treck? you got all the strips you need closer too!!??

Well PHISHuntR , I just want to have that dir handy for sometime if I want to make that looong drive . I live in Reseda , I know it take about 2 hrs to go there , but it alot closer than Salton Sea ( I go there alot in the summer ).
I want those BIG BOYS . Thanks for the info .
