Hi there, I just want to say thank you for uploading this video and showing us it is possible to catch fish (especially trout) at New Melones. I've heard of the reservoir and I ave fished there a coupw times. The first time I went there was around August. I went fishing under the bridge but didn't catch anything (I did see some bass along the shore). Second time I was there I went to the tuttletown recreation area early in the morning of September. I saw a lot of bass swimming close to the shore and even a large catfish. By the end og the day I caught a small bass using a rainbow trout colored spoon (i had to let it sink deep). Third timeI went was in December, and I went back to the bridge. I got skunked that day. And the most recent time was last month. I took a friend out there to fish and we went to fish past Angels Creek boat lunch. We got skunked and worst was my Carolina rig snagged onto something below the water. I didn't have a longer rod like the one in your video so i had to cut the line. Anyway, although the reservoir is massive, watching your video has encouraged me to try fishing there again. I like to use a lot of spoons and my rapala countdown lures, but at least I now know powerbait will definitely work out there if i fish close to the shore. Thank you again for showing us you van catch fish from the shore and hopefully I can catch something out there (maybe a brown trout if I'm lucky)!

Tie parachute cord to stringer , 15 ft . which allows catch to be in deeper water ???? Good job catching , thanks .

How long is your leader from swivel to hook? Most guys look for deeper water, but you do very well...

Zero hero, I know you are the older brother of Arnold and Richard. The way you fish and the species you target makes it noticeable for me. Good video. Keep it coming.

Another awesome video dude! I fished that lake a handful of time with some friends but we never caught trout from the bank. Most of the time we're trolliing the dam or the river arm. I guess bait is the way to go.
