Cornaz Lake is a lake in California, near Shasta County.
Cornaz Lake is a lake in Shasta County, California and covers about 46 acres, reaches about 25.3 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 466 acre-feet.
Cornaz Lake can be broken down in a few passes: shallow cover, the first break, and the deepest useful water.
Fish listed for Cornaz Lake include Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Sacramento Sucker, and Rainbow Trout.
While looking for rainbow trout on Cornaz Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.
To begin with brown trout on Cornaz Lake, work a small minnow bait, spoon, or streamer along cool breaks and moving water.
Start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it; follow the old channel through the lake, then test a point before fishing a featureless bank.
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; try the windblown bank, then use wind to narrow the search.
A light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control; give shaded water a separate pass; work the bottom where the bank turns steep.
Record the wind, water color, depth of the best pass, 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; use water color to choose the first lure, then change lure speed before moving.
