San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Nice job, watch out if on a boat, kayak, or tube, I had some golfers t off towards me, almost hit me on the yak. They jumped in there carr and took off fast right after. I'm sure it happens quite a bit

My wife's uncle caught the blueest bass i ever seen using a large night crawler across the lake from the restaurant on the point at kitchen cove. It's actually the only bass I've first hand seen caught out of the lake. It was nice maybe just under 4#

I was out there as well, can't believe I didn't see you. Would have loved to meet you all. Im pretty sure I seen mcfish and maybe Vinny, im not sure ive never meet either before.
I was the guy with the trailer and the nucanoe. I fished the dam side til around 1 then hit the right of the launch the ...

No. Im the popper guy:)

Hmmm who knew? Awesome day man.

It seems like every week is a different pattern up there now! They're pulling water out now..it's down a couple feet.


I agree, seems like for about a month now the pattern has changed from week to week.
I was busy cutting off lures from the week prior early ...

Nice fish, I slayed out there today, bit of a lull between 11am and 1pm. I found where the nothing but 3+ were and with the cloud cover and bit of a sprinkle, top water was on. They were busting in frenzies after 3pm.

I was out there as well, tough morning for me.
1st fish not on til around 10am. Started picking up clones on the minnow and free rig over the next few hours. Seen a feeding frenzy over at the bouy line nxt to the dam around 1, got a few missed bites and finally landed a 2 1/2# clone.
Decided to ...

I wanted to go out there, seeing all the high numbers of fish catches made me think it would be slow cause the fish had already been caught and probably stressed. I hit up Miramar instead....got 3 missed bites on a minnow out there and that was it. Normal spots fish were gone. It's sucked, wish I ...

Nice catches. I was out there as well, late start for me as I didn't get on the water til 930.
I was able.to pick up 9.fish all in the 1-2# range. Got a few on the minnow and a few on the ned, rest were on a mini jig w/ wacky rigged senco....bite was tough at first, switched to a darker color and ...

After a few years of refusing to jig a minnow, 2025 I decided to learn the process. I tried various minnow style baits, jig heads and retrieves.
I was very successful most of the year and got to admit, doubled even tripled my catch counts.
Seemed as though the fish were starting to see it too much ...

I took my kayak (nucanoe unlimited)out to.el cap today, its been a few months since taking it out. Day was slow but managed 3 dinks by the end of the day.
Day was going fine, hit all the usual places, decided I was going to explore the far back as I never travel that far nor have I seen many people ...

You nailed it, slight corrosion on negative terminal and loose wing nut at battery.
After some research and inspection, quick shout out to chatgpt, I've decided to rewire the kayak with a higher quality marine grade 6awg copper tinned wire. Chatgpt helped me source the internet w/ similar issues ...

Just finished running new wire.through the hull. Everything went smooth. Used the old wire to pull the new wire through. Noticed a bit of condensation built up from all the hot/cold days. Wiped.up what i could and then ran a leaf blower through the hull to dry things out completely.
Used new ...

Were you in a tube or kayak?
I was out there yesterday and had a hell of a time launching my kayak. they were working on the docks and had guy wires all over, shore was mucky mud, not fun. I only stayed for 2 hours, got 2 fish and decided to call it as I was dreading how to get out.
Sounds like ...
