I went fishing up at Jenks Lake last weekend. It was fun reminiscing about past trips there while catching some rainbow trout and large mouth bass. Jenks lake has excellent views of the San Gorgonio wilderness, and if you are lucky enough you may get a fly by of a Bald Eagle. This time all fish were caught on a Sierra Slammer Mini Swimbait.

Taking my kids today for the first time my first time up too. It's really cool to hear all of the stories man 🤙

@HuckOutdoors Год назад

Have fun! It's great to see water in it again.

@RustyX2010 Год назад

My father used to take me fishing there in the 80's and that place used to be really busy.I haven't been back there since 1996.

@HuckOutdoors Год назад

Water level was dropping, but they fixed the flume, which should help with the water levels.

@Texas_taildraggin 2 года назад

Just went up there yesterday after watching this video. Sad to report it’s dang near empty. I was told the flume is blocked. Hopefully next week they’ll unclog it. Fish and game showed up and stocked the lake with 200 lbs of trout though! That was cool to watch.

@HuckOutdoors 2 года назад

Hopefully the flume is fixed soon.

Great memories for me too. I used to fish Jenks in the 70s & 80s. It has really changed. Back then, no paved lot, no fees. I wish they would remove the dead trees, to make room for new greenery. Nice video. Glad it can still be enjoyed.

@HuckOutdoors 4 года назад

I heard they removed one of the old trees that fell in the lake. I used to like walking out on it and fishing off of it.

@gabepettinicchio7454 4 года назад

@@HuckOutdoors The last time I fished there was in the mid 80s. I had to haul-up a big truck full of stuff needed at an old YMCA Camp. Back then, it was free and you could just walk to the lake and fish. We delivered and then hiked down to Jenks, caught a few Rainbows, toted them back up to the camp and used the large industrial stove and ate them. Awesome time, even for 1 night and 2 days.

This video brings a good memory of my family camping nearby Barton flats camping ground. Around 2003 and 2004 this lakes allowed people to swim in a certain area. Water was so cold. It took a while to immerse a whole body to the water. My kid was catching some trout when stocking truck release them through huge pump. Good memory. Also we hiked from South Fork trail to the junction of dry and dollar lake.

@HuckOutdoors 3 года назад

Sounds like a great time. Thanks for sharing the memories!

@@HuckOutdoors That was in 1964. There was a small area roped off with a floating dock. It was all supervised with swimming from the shore to the dock and back again.

Jenks is still somewhat of a hidden gem. Thx for sharing your stories Jason. Took my mom there 2 mothers day ago and met Bob. He was driving around on a go cart. I think he's been the steward for quite some time. Does keep grounds very clean. Fish were definitely biting that day...happy trails

Man it's been awhile since I have been to Jenks, last time I went the water was super low. Really enjoyed listening to your old memories of the lake and of your dad. Most of my fondest memories are of camping and fishing with my dad when I was a kid. Definitely memories that will last a lifetime. Thanks for sharing.

Gonna try to make it this coming May and throw some bass lures that I can’t with all the weeds. Caught a 5# a few years ago, guess I’m still chasing it. Probably drag the kayak or Packfish 7 along.

@brettoetting 4 года назад

@@HuckOutdoors last DFG stock was in June but there are plenty of holdovers. Much easier to hook out on the water compared to pounding the bank. Some shore fishermen were nailing trout on a bobber and worm tho. I got mine casting a Ned Rig for bass, I just ended up with trout.

@ridiculousfishr9812 5 лет назад

Thank you for doing this video. I took my son this morning and we caught 5 bass (he caught one that was a really nice size). Do they stock bass here along with the trout plants? I thought we only had trout in our mountain lakes. Also, do you happen to know if they are stocking the Santa Ana river? I've really been studying your videos to help my son and me catch fish. Thank you again for making these videos and adding so many helpful hints along the way.

@CatchCatchFish 5 лет назад

They don't stock bass there, but someone planted them there years ago and they naturally reproduce there, unlike the sterile trout

@HuckOutdoors 5 лет назад

Bass are reproducing on their own there! Santa Ana River is on the DFW trout stock list, but I do not know if they stocked it or not. Good Job on the Bass!

@HuckOutdoors 4 года назад

I would say it's not worth it. It hasn't been stocked in a long long time. Right now your better bets are Big Bear from a boat or Green Valley from a boat.
