Anglers caught quality largemouth bass around submerged trees, main lake points, and the dam

Lake Success - CA (Tulare County) The lake level remained low at approximately 10% of its storage capacity, while bass fishing was good. Anglers caught quality largemouth bass around submerged trees, main lake points, and the dam in 10 to 25 feet of water. Drop-shot rigs, creature baits, and spider jigs in green pumpkin, brown, and purple patterns all produced fish, while A-rigs also proved effective. Some of the larger bass were caught on 8- and 10-inch worms and crankbaits fished near submerged trees. Some anglers reported success with the brass and glass technique. Crappie reports were limited, but anglers found good-quality fish near submerged vegetation, with small live minnows and mini jigs producing the best results. Catfish action was good, with dip bait, cut sardines, and chicken liver accounting for catches. The CDFW have a scheduled trout stocking here next week, first one of the season.

Woodlake football captures third straight East Sequoia League title

Winning. That's the culture at Woodlake High School. Under fifth-year head coach Manny Martinez, the Tigers football program captured their third straight East Sequoia League championship this season, going a perfect 4-0 to win an outright league title. Since Martinez arrived as head coach in 2022, Woodlake has been the class of the ESL, going 25-7 in league play, including a dominating 16-2 mark from 2024 to this fall. How has Woodlake (8-2) sustained that success? "I think just the consistency of the weight room, and being consistent on and off the field," Martinez said. "The consistency the boys are getting used to week in and week out. The expectations, we hold them to high expectations here, and they come to realize that they're going to be nothing less than playing in the playoffs." More: Week 12 Tulare County Power Football Rankings, plus stat stars Those standards are why Woodlake has been one of Tulare County's premier small-school programs this decade.
