I have a question for all of you that fish Tenmile Lakes on a regular basis!!
Are you catching "ANY" small Bass?? 12" and smaller!!
I fish it a lot and can not remember the last time I caught a small fish!
This is not a good sign of a healthy fishery!!!

I used to fish Tenmile now and then, seems as though the past 10 years have brought nothing but a decline.
Hope it comes back.

Draw down for a couple of years is what it needs. That would bring it back to life.

I've only caught a few short fish this year but thats pretty normal, the dink bite comes on strong after the spawn is over.
Tenmile has been very good the last 5 years, at some point the fishing will come back to earth..

Tenmile is a natural lake, no dam! I has been lower than normal in the late summer for the last couiple years though!
Tenmile can at the extreme fluctuate as much as 14' from high to low pool!

It's hard to catch dinks on 10 inch worms and 12 inch swimbaits
