Lots of shad in the water and lots of great bass fishing at Lake Casitas in Ventura California. Excellent fishing continues as we have lots of bait to net each and every morning for our guide trips. The shad have been pretty much all over the lake and it has not been much trouble to reach out and net the 2-5" long Threadfin shad. We have been fly lining the shad on light line and spinning rods. This is an excellent time to book a fishing trip especially if you're going to fish with friends and children. Almost anyone can fish with this live bait and it results in a lot of fun for fisherman that have limited success when going bass fishing. As always we supply all the rods, reels and tackle that you will need for the fishing day. We have trips that leave at 7 AM in the morning and another trip that leaves at 12 noon. These are both half-day fishing trips which are four hours long. The boat is in the water just steps away from the Marina Café which serves fantastic food from breakfast through dinner. We have a full day fishing trip that leaves each and every day at 7:30 AM and returns at 3:30 PM. There is always bottled water, ice, and packaged snacks on board all fishing trips at no extra charge. Prices range from $225 for one person for a half day fishing trip, to $400 total price for two anglers to spend a full eight hours on the water. Like I said we are fishing Lake Casitas in Ventura California and the weather has been absolutely fantastic. The morning trips require a nice warm jacket in the morning, and the afternoons have been absolutely beautiful. You basically can come just the way you are other than a jacket probably the only other thing that you will need is a hat and some sunglasses.
