I have fished Topaz a couple of times, the fishing is decent. We shore fished using bait and caught a couple of nice trout. The boaters seemed to do much better with trolling. This is a good time of year but you will have a handful of skiers to tend to, so plan for that.
If you are looking for trout there are a couple of other decent spots near by if that one doesnt work out. Desert Creek has some good creek fishing for brook trout, we deer hunt in that area and always spend a day catching some trout for dinner. Mason Valley wildlife reserve is one of my favorite places to fish, we will actually be going there this weekend. It has the trout hatchery there and several ponds that hold good trout. The trout in my avatar came out of Hinkson slough, right behind the hatchery. There are also a number of bass and crappie ponds there too so you get a little variety.
