Shasta Lake is in its dead of winter pattern but we're seeing some good size trout coming to the net this week.  I've fished all over the lake except the Pit arm and floating debris is definately limiting where we can fish.  The lake is just over 30' from full pool and water temps are hovering around 49-50 degrees.  the...
