San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

It's like a video game with the old graphics. Imagine what this will be like in 10 years. I have the panoptix on my kayak but I kind of only use it to teach me how the fish are moving. I definitely have learned somethings on how bass herd the bait while watching them at Barrett.

Been a long time(June 21) since I actually fished on the water at Murray. Besides being out sick and a few other ailments added to the fact they lowered the water where I could not launch my boat, it was nice to actually get back on the water this morning. Threw topwater baits and reaction baits on ...

Months ago,I got a Jackall Gantarel Jr as part of a deal selling a rod and it has never touched the water. While waiting for my buddy Larry to launch his boat I made a few casts near the boat ramp and was surprised when a small bass slammed it. I was amazed a small bass would hit it and yet so ...

I got on the water before sunrise with the excitement of the previous Wednesday still fresh in my veins. It was a foggy morning with nary a buster in sight. Never the less I was able to get 1 nice one to rise on my topwater Gunfish early. I stayed committed to topwater for an hour and a half but ...

Colorado River..tons of them up in Parker Az.

Great job out there again buddy!
Roughing it in this heat...... but getting well rewarded.
Love the pics as I can imagine all the fun you were having out there.
Thanks for sharing and tight lines always.

Nice one!

What’s up everyone, I’m very new to bass fishing and I’m just looking for some pointers I might be missing on or doing something wrong. Spent about 3 hours this morning at Otay and didn’t get a single bite. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!!


Are you on the shore or in a kayak ...

When you think your fishing slow .....fish even slower.

Nice Report, definitely keeping everyone in the loop. Thanks!

I haven't had anything eat the Wakasagi. I even through it in the middle of a bunch of busters and nada. Glad to see it's successful for others! lol

Well, you probably already guessed.... as it is no surprise that I fished Lake Murray this morning. It is just so close to my house and
heck...why not! Started pretty slow as I searched all over for balls of shad in deeper water in between tossing topwater baits towards
some breakers but no hook ...

After having been under the weather for almost 2 weeks (and still not feeling 100%) I finally got back on the water yesterday for a morning session.

I tried topwater for the first 45 minutes with no joy, then the middle column stuff, but all the biters seemed stuck on the bottom.

I ended the ...

Decent topwater bite early this morning at the Murr. It was overcast for the first hour and they were busting everywhere! I managed 7 early then the sun burned off the fog and everything basically stopped. Caught 4 more out deeper after the sun then moved toward shore.

I am a bit disappointed ...

Otay is only open Wed, Sat & Sun, but I gotta say....I'm with CorsoEnthusiast on the quality of that lake When it comes to Bass fishing.

It's the only lake that has rivaled Barrett for the numbers of bass I have caught, and the size/quality of fish is usually much better on average. Similar to the ...

It was a little overcast in the morning and after an already late start to the lake, I spent a good deal of time on shore before launching
when I ran into my old fishing buddy Sonny. Haven't seen him in a long time and he is an amazing bass fisherman. He fishes out of a
kayak and always catches ...

The fat one bit a Mattlure hard wake gill at first light.

I met Mr. Vinnybass at Murray this morning for a little post full moon fishing! Between the two of us, I think we have at least a 100 years of experience on the lake, so I figured we could put together some kind of a pattern! The lake started out glassy and calm and didn't take long to heat up. It ...

The surface was like an oil painting when we got on the water and with the full moon I figured it was going to be a tough one.
Then the surface started to stir which took our minds off of melting as weather really heated up quickly. I told McFish I have
only been fishing reaction baits and not ...

Wild how that dinner bell just shuts off!
