Heck yeah ….

Heck yeah!!!
Nice job buddy. It’s always fun to go back to the lake where it was tough and have a nice rebound. Those are some nice fish….. what a difference a week makes eh? Thank you for sharing your fun day with us. Like I told you…it’s going to be a great summer. Tight lines always.

I launched my kayak at Otay for the evening bite. It was slow fishing, however managed to a catch few dinks. Water is the highest I’ve ever seen it at. Most fish caught shallow and tight to structure. Water temps on the colder side.

Launched at San V early morning. They had a night tournament the ...

Well I got to the lake 6:30am , very lite crowd. Looked for the mcfish-mobile, no luck.
Headed out ,very nice morning, caught 5 small males quick thought water temp is warming go look for some bluegill.
Good call, caught 6 nice ones. I posted them on the panfish site.
Looks like spring has sprung ...

Been a good couple of weekends. Can’t wait for the next couple
Of months. Going to be good with all this water.

Nice report! The RP knot works really well too, takes a little practice but it's good and nice and thin. Works with light line or heavy if you modify the number of wraps. As long as you find a connection you like and have confidence in, it's Saul Goodman

The heartbreak is you get turned around on the quagga mussel inspection 90% of the time from a ridiculous reason. Example, a eucalyptus leaf that fell in your boat the morning you drove up and you missed it. Or condensation.

After much praying on the way there, we passed the inspection. What a ...

Hit Murray this morning(like you guys did not see that coming...ha ha) and it was cool and overcast. I heard of a few topwater stirrings from my buddy Larry who wrangled in some recent topwater bass, so I was ready. It is still a little early for topwater and should be going off a lot better as we ...

Nice job getting out there and catching bass with all that pressure on the lake. Seems like there’s so many tournaments at a lot of the lakes especially on Saturdays. Heck I try not to fish on the weekends but most of the time when I do go to other lakes, I try to go on a Sunday. Thanks for sharing ...

Tried my luck there on Friday- Sunrise to sunset. Reports from other anglers- it was slow going! Fisheromen joined me for first half of the day and a different friend the second half. Paul and I only got two the first half, one each, and I got four more the second half. All topwater but one bedfish ...

Got to the lake early, almost empty, which was a big surprise to me. Paddled out and immediately got a treat over by the big water inlet. Of course that anchored me to that spot for another fruitless 45 minutes. But moved along the shoreline and out to the island and got many takers. All on dropshot ...

Arrived at the lake 6:30 looked as if I was fishing a private lake, maybe 10 boats.
For a spring unheard of. Started chasing the bass, after 23 all cruisers it was time to move on,
Got on the red ear, spent the rest of the day catching them. If you like having a fish trying to pull the rod out of ...

Dang it!!! I have to tell you that I had a completed story ready to post and lost it by opening another window and not saving it as a draft.
After screaming several "special" words showing my frustration...here is the post and a lot shorter than the original which is good as many of you know most of ...

This year has been a bit slower with the bass bite from shore. I get into a decent fish here and there, but the bite has been very slow. The minute you skip a week you may miss out.

Well for the first few hours it seemed like bad business as usual at the old lake. Just cold and rainy! The game plan was to throw a buzz bait through flooded brush. If that failed, a spinnerbait through flooded brush. I just knew they had to be in flooded brush! Well, if they were, they were not ...

I'm new to the whole bass fishing thing so this was my first time on the water trying to catch some largies.
Thanks to VinnyBass who was kind enough to provide me with some detailed advice I felt like I knew what I was doing. Not a lot of action though but we've caught a few between myself and the ...

Dropshot hint: hangs up less in the rocks and brush!

Those damn bass stole all my water!
