Largemouth Bass
For Largemouth Bass near Pleasanton, California, Lake Del Valle is your primary destination. This reservoir offers a diverse habitat, from rocky shorelines and submerged timber to weed beds and tules, all ideal for bass. Spring and fall are prime times, as the fish are more active during these periods, either spawning or fattening up for winter. During the summer, focus on deeper water and early morning/late evening fishing. A local tip: many anglers have success flipping jigs and plastics around the tules and submerged vegetation. The lake also supports a healthy population of crawfish, so lures that mimic this prey are often effective. Access to Lake Del Valle is well-maintained, with boat ramps, fishing piers, and plenty of shoreline access. Be aware of the lake's elevation changes, as water levels can fluctuate depending on rainfall and irrigation demands.
