First time fishing this lake. Any good tips? 

Hello. Contact RC guide service about fishing Don Pedro. He is a new guide but he is awesome and extremely passionate about teaching what he knows. He took his first clients out earlier and caught 90 fish. Google Ryan Cook or find him on facebook. He does have a web page up too. Try 559-691-7008. Good luck

 

I only fished Don Pedro one time during a tournament that we won!

We started off and the OB stalled just after getting on plane so I decided to fish near the marina and 1st major point instead of trying to fix the engine. If I ever fish Don Pedro again it would be near the dam and 1st major point this time of year. All our bass were caught on brown/purple jigs on clay to rock transitions.

Good luck,

Tom

We ended up just trolling. We was doing good on black and silver, and sexy shad colors. 

If you make it back we usually fish the other side of the lake (headed up river) from where Tom was due to the proximity of the other launch ramp, and it's a rare day when they're not happy to hit finesse offerings in natural colors. I imagine it's more of the same on the western side.
