Lake Oroville Fly fishing Reports

Capt. Hogan Brown reports on 12.13.18

Been spending most of my time this last week on the Great Inland Lake aka Lake Oroville with my boys and then exploring on my own figuring everything out for my winter-spring foothill spotted bass season. 

Water temps are a bit warmer around 54-52 then I usually fish the lake at but the spotted bass and land locked chinook have been pretty grabby. 

Most of the spotted bass have been averaging 1-3lbs and the Chinooks we have been finding are like 18-20" and fat. Most of the time we are fishing the Float'n Fly method around the banks and rock piles but with the warmer water fishing some minnow patterns on I lines and top water has been working as well.
