Just returned from a week at Carson. I'm not sure why, could be the strange weather the last 2 years, but the fishing has really slowed down. I used to easily catch 4-8 fish per hour but this year there were 3 of us and we caught a grand total of 7 fish in 6 days. Tried all of the above set ups aside from the 5 of diamonds and nothing worked any better than any other. For each 2-3 hour trip out we'd get a few small bites and would be lucky to land 1 small fish. Out of the 7 we did land, only 1 was a decent size. We were also there last August for 2 weeks and although not as slow it was not great fishing then either. Maybe getting winter killed?
