Bluegill
For bluegill fishing near Arroyo Grande, Lopez Lake is again your best bet. These panfish are plentiful and readily accessible, making it a great option for families and beginner anglers. The peak season is during the spring spawning period and throughout the summer when the water is warm. Target shallow, weedy areas near the shoreline with small hooks baited with worms, crickets, or mealworms. A bobber can be helpful for detecting subtle bites. A local tip is to try fishing under the shade of overhanging trees, as bluegill often congregate in these cooler spots.
