Maul Lake is a lake in California, near Mono County.
Maul Lake is a lake in Mono County, California and covers about 4.5 acres, reaches about 13.5 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 24.1 acre-feet.
The small size of Maul Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Maul Lake include Brook Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
While looking for rainbow trout on Maul Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.
Use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket; work the best shade during bright hours, then change retrieve speed before changing lures.
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; check a protected pocket, then make one pass close to bottom.
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; separate open-water fish from bank fish; repeat the depth that gives the first bite.
Record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, 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; start beside deeper water, then fish the same shape nearby.
