Lake Cuyamaca - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Call the lake and see if they'll tell you when the next "pump back" is happening...this is when they move water from an outside reserve to the lake. We got lucky enough to be there last year right after a pump back and the fishing was excellent. Other poster is correct tho, no yaks till Memorial Day.

Leave the fairy wands and trout noodles at home! Get yourself a heavy swimbait rod with 25# test and a few Huddlestron or Triple Trout swimbaits. You would be surprised the number of DD bass in that lake due to the amount of trout they stock it with.

No recent reports...but looks like fun...according to the website, it appeasrs its float tubes that aren't allowed till memorial day. Kayaks boats have to do the fresh water wash down before for 5 bucks. If yaks arent allowed, my buddy and I are ready to rent one of the tiny skiffs there...ahhh, brings back childhood memories of early morning fishing on a tiny aluminum skiff with the old man...lol
