Tiger Creek Reservoir
Ronald,
It takes one, to know one.... Watch out for people who judge, they are everywhere give them pen and paper and they will judge you too.......
I think it's overstated but the fishing can be inviting, for there are massive 20lb browns and 15+ rainbows in the lake and are native.. Do whatch out for tweekers, for they are everywhere, give them a smoke and a beer, and they will bait your hook.Have a great visit to our lake......

Schaads Reservoir
Shcaads is a dammed lake on the middle fork of the the mokelumne river. Get out your banjos when you visit...very country-fryed. Fishing at Schaads has always been iffy, never good. The mid fork moke river above used to have small trout but CFG put in some otters and the fishing is nada. Blue Creek, a whole different drainage and miles away has a few small fish but not worth the effort on very rough roads. Go to the Stan river at the upper end of Melones Res. Hike up, catch some good ones....I am looking for directions back to Blue Creek. It is up the road several miles past Schaads. I havent fished there since the eighties and would like to go back. Any help out there? thanks   fuzzykpd@inreach.com...

Pi-Pi Campground
This is aggressive bear country.  Watch your back when hiking and make sure you're fast enough to out-run at least one of your hiking buddies....Is there camp grounds to camp in vehicals? Is there rivers or lakes?...

Lake Tabeaud
14 miles away
I went fishing today at Lake Tabeaud- I got 7 fish. 3 German Browns and 4 Rainbow trout. The rainbow trout were clearly planted, as for the Browns they looked native. I had several bites and lost many once hooked. I used a kast master!!! Peace! June 11, 2009...

Salt Springs Reservoir
17 miles away
I went to Salt Spring years ago, launched my boat, and boat camped and fished for a few days. I planned the same trip yesterday. We went in when still dark down a narrow 18 mile road from HWY 88. When we got to the dam, we found that the boat ramp was closed to trail launching. There is a small sign that says so near Hwy 88, but its real easy to miss. We read up on Salt Springs in several publications. Nowhere did it mention no boat launching!!! The ramp is still there, but blocked off. I wish PG&E would fix that!...

Bridal Veil Campground
18 miles away
WHEN does Bridal Veil open?...

Bear Valley
29 miles away
Lots of really great runs, too many to name. I go here as often as I have a chance....
