Congratulations on your PB Jeremy! What a nice looking bass! Very healthy!
Thanks for including me early via text as that was very, very exciting to see the pics and glad Chris was there to film a video for you. You put in a lot of work bass fishing and bet you were really jazzed catching that bass ...

Freaking awesome Jeremy! Congrats on your new PB. A big fish on BFS gear is truly an epic experience huh?

Congrats on your new PB it’s a beautiful thing for sure. I like you have been stuck on 6.5 BASS as my PB since 1984 at Otay (NEW MOON) I would love to break that record.
Great to see your face again on a report.

That's a great story and I'm so happy for you. I just wish I was there with you, like we usually are. Congratulations on your new PB!

My last fishing trip of 2025 was supposed to be yesterday , after fishing the deep waters of Lake Murray and coming up with 7 small & even tiny bass. Example: a few whoppers from yesterday at Murray...ha ha

I know it was still fun, but decided to take a ...

Congrats again! It was an amazing thing to be there and experience with you. The video is in the editing room now. Worked on it today and will work more tonight and tomorrow. Looking for a NYD morning drop for the video. Cheers!

Careful. Gonna pull a muscle trying not to smile! Great fish!

Sweet!
Beautiful fish
My PB came from El Cap also.
9.75, deep diving crankbait.

1st bass of 2026! On track for 365 bass this year...

Congrats Jeremy on the PB. And I'm sure quite an epic fight on BFS gear.

Nothing spectacular, but the annual projection has shot up to 730!

Congratulations! Way to go. Makes me want to go fishing=D

Nice fish! Hope you don't have to wait so long for your next PB!
Mine was also a December El Cap fish! 8-13.
Congrats!

El Cap seems to provide a lot of people's PBs. Mine was a 9.8 over 20 years ago. Much to the chagrin of the guys in bass boats fishing in a big tournament that day. What with me fishing in my old float tube haha.

It was a beautiful day at the Murr today. I got on the water at 8:00 and was off by 1:00. It was mostly cloudy, but not really cold, and no wind to speak of all day. The water was a bit cloudy after the rains, but not as bad as I expected it to be.

My final count was six, with most going over two ...

Chris’ video that includes my PB catch is up on YouTube! So stoked that I can relive this moment on demand now!

I enjoy watching your videos Chris and this one was special..... especially for Jeremy.
Nice job as always, keep them coming and ...

Ok so how cool to capture Jeremy’s PB!? Way to go both of you guys

I threw practically the entire arsenal at them today. The final count was 8. Nothing huge, but all were solid 2+ pounders so I am not complaining. Every fish came courtesy of a tiny Megabass Griffon crank bait. They just wouldn't touch anything else.

Now watch, tomorrow I'll go back to the same ...

I decided to take my kayak up to Miramar this morning and throw a wide variety of swimbaits.
There was only one boat that was launched and
no kayaks and not even a float tube. Add the fact that there are no trout stockings planned there, I knew it was probably going to be tough. I mixed it up with ...

Had a great time at El Capitan today. 9 fish in total. I threw my new Berkeley Triple Minnow rig for a while, and got no bites, but to be fair, I really need to put in some time learning to fish it. It does look good in the water.

All 9 fish came on a NED bait on a 1/8 oz jig. They liked it when I ...
