Excellent trout and salmon action is taking place on this Merced River impoundment. For rainbow trout target the area near the face of the dam at depths from 20- to 30-feet. Ex-Cel, Cripplures or Slim-Fins work well when trolled from 2 -2.5 mph. Ther also is good action on nice rainbows in the 18- to 22-inch range trolling near the bridge at Bagby. King salmon are on a good bite below Horseshoe Bend working the river channel from 40- to 75-feet deep with rolling shad or anchovies off a Pro-Troll harness. Kings go to five pounds. For kokanee to 18 inches, target the A-Frame cabin into Temperance Bay at depths of 40- to 50-feet with Uncle Larry's spinners scented with Pautzke's fire corn with a hint of vanilla. (209) 586-2383
