Peninsula Lake is a lake in California, near Tuolumne County.
Peninsula Lake is a lake in Tuolumne County, California and covers about 44.6 acres.
A point, weed edge, or small drop is more important than simply covering the whole shoreline; check a rocky edge, then fish isolated cover before a long empty edge.
Fish listed for Peninsula Lake include Brook Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
To begin with rainbow trout on Peninsula Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool 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; check the coolest inflow, then 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; work from shallow to deep, then separate open water from cover.
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; make the next cast parallel to the edge; fish the edge from top to bottom.
Record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, 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; check a protected pocket, then give low-light water a slower bottom pass.
