And thought about that as I was working Topwater halfway through my short session. The report was the bite was terrible, from Lake staff and friends on the water. Decided not to let that bother me too much, and went ahead with the plan to get some Topwater action if I could. Ended up with some nice ...

Thanks for the update! I've been out there the last 2 weeks also with mixed results. I'm a lot more familiar with the small rockpiles in other lakes and have been trying to hunt new ones as the water levels change. Keep on grinding.

Very nice job!
Gettin' jiggy with it and wormin' it for nice bass!

It was a relatively slow day at the Murr, but I did manage 4 bucketmouths with the one pictured being the largest at 3.7.

But the news is that the lake is supposed to get its first trout stock of the year at the end of next week (per the guy in the tackle shop). So all you big swim bait guys better ...

Went to San V. The water is down to muscles now. Easy to cut your line as I did. I started top water pushed it for as long I can stand it for nothing. Still some busters happening, didn't want to chase them. Fished my normal haunts or I should say the area as my spots are out of the water. Found ...

I arrived at the lake at 8:00 a.m. after dropping the kids off at school. Started fishing, and by 10:00 a.m. I started feeling like crap. Sore throat, fever, stuffy nose. Still I did manage one pretty decent fish on a jig. Been in bed ever since.

Here's to Hope and I feel better and get back on ...

Nice job out there buddy!
Heck, while I was kicking back in a sweatshirt and sweat pants, you were having a heck of a lot more fun
down at Otay. Looks like you had a blast experimenting with the stalling thing and and it sure looks like
it paid off. I will be trying more hover baits this winter as ...

Hit the SD river this morning around 8 am and it took just over 2 hours before I got my first bite on a brushhog that I tossed in between
sunken branches and the shoreline. Set the hook and enjoyed about 5 or 6 seconds of a nice fight and suddenly the bass came off. I mean I had tension on him and ...

Nice. Ugly lures that work good make me smile

Round 2 this morning was even better than round one. The fatties came out to play this morning. Couple on a bladebait to start the morning, a clone sized one and a chunky ~ 4pounder. Surface activity picked up and I immediately went to the fish roller. First cast, my bait got hammered and my drag ...

Dang. I was all ready to hit the lake Sunday, woke up and my stupid back said, "YOUR NOT DOING S#@T". Great job for a short session on a typically rough lake.

Nice work so late in the year for sure!

Awesome job brother! You'll have to give me lessons on that strolling thang!

Yeah....even though I normally stop fishing the SD river in early November each year, but it’s
December....I decided ah, what the heck!
The water no doubt has cooled down so this morning I worked crank baits and blade baits as slow as I could which is not easy as I tend to work baits like it is mid ...

Nice job...interesting bait color!

It was a T rig and jig morning, got a nice surprise pulling the chatter over a snag.

Awesome Jeremy

Geez....where are the bass posts?.....I guess nobody is bass fishing anymore...ha ha.
I decided to venture over to Murray this morning despite hearing how tough and bad the bite been by more than a few guys I know and various guys coming off the lake recently. I figured what a perfect time to toss ...

Hello all,

Not too much to post here, but Vinny is right, there's not a lot of bass activity on the site. Went to El Cap on Sunday morning. Decided I probably was only pedaling about, so didn't go at dark and wait in line. Got on the water about 0730. It was still cold out and the water was about ...

While sipping my 2nd cup of coffee around 8:25 trying to stay warm, I suddenly decided I wanted to go to the SD river. As I was gathering gear pretty quickly , I knocked over the box of terminal tackle loaded with tons of different size hooks, all types of weights, Tokyo rigs, Ned rig jig heads ...
