Fire Tiger Rapala Delivers Trout at Folsom Lake

Tom Mailey from Get The Net Fishing was out on Folsom Lake for a four-hour evening session. He top-lined a Fire Tiger Rapala and caught this beautiful trout, released it, and then caught three more solid ones. All catch and release.

Tom said Folsom Lake is fishing surprisingly well right now. The trout are really going for that flashy Fire Tiger pattern in the evening hours.

If you're new to Folsom Lake or want some tips to get on the fish, book a guided trip with Tom. He knows the water and what's working at the moment.
