What anglers target

Rainbow trout are the main search draw after plants. Bass and other warm-water species see pressure in warmer months.

Boat and shore access depend on the recreation operator’s season and fees — this is not an unmanaged open shoreline.

Access notes

Confirm hours, fees, boat rules, and any closures with EBMUD recreation before you go. Plant weekends fill fast.
