Alto lake used to be one of the top spec lakes around about 15 years ago but since the canal stoped flowing into it and dosn't filter the lake no more the fishing has died and the specs are gone. My opinion is to clean the debree along the canal so it can funtion again.

The fishin is good if you know the spots for bass. on the north side of the lake about 50 yrds out their is a nice drop where i have brought in a ton of bass. If you want to know the true secret to fishing on alto its the color and type of lure you are using. i caught 10 bass in 1 hour using black and blue artificial worms.. but the real trick is to use a open bait caster because they will spit them out after a few seconds so you really need to feel the line and set the hook early
