BAUM LAKE

FISHING REPORT
Updated - 11/20/22

​

Current Conditions: Normal and clear

Fishing-Very Good: Report remains the same. The Fly Shop in Redding reports that the lake is fishing very well.  Midges are the key bug here so be prepared with Zebra Midges from size #14 down to #20.  BWOs hatch on cloudy days so have some #18-#20 Adams Parachutes available.  Also, have some ant dry patterns (try a dark Missing Link for ants) on board too.
