Avocado Lake is a lake in California, near Fresno County.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Avocado Lake is a lake in Fresno County, California and covers about 51.2 acres.
Avocado Lake can be broken down in a few passes: shallow cover, the first break, and the deepest useful water.
Fish listed for Avocado Lake include Prickly Sculpin, Sacramento Blackfish, Sacramento Pikeminnow, and Sacramento Sucker.
Rainbow Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch; work each small drop before going deeper.
Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break; save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
Shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move; test the clearest edge, then repeat the first clean pattern.
A medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle; change depth before changing the whole spot, then keep the first route short.
Record the wind, water color, depth where the school held, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce; separate open water from cover.
