A bright spot among a bunch of crotchety old geezers.

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 ...

In years of high water, the south end has been very good to me. I caught my largest personal best at Cuyamaca, but it was way back at the end of June in 2009. I caught a 12 lb bass on a Senko just as a thunderstorm began. It was possible back in those days, to catch numbers and quality, but you had ...

Fridays are Geezer day at D.K.....only 65's and up! I broke my number one rule Friday, don't try to make fish do something they don't want to do! I wasted 3 hours trying to make the topwater happen like it did 2 weeks ago..stupid! I missed the best hours for the bottom bite! It was definitely Vinny ...

Fun froggy morning at Otay. Only 5 bass, but all over 3 lbs with the best going 3.76. also managed a few beefy bluegill trolling crank baits when changing froggin spots.

I'm impressed with the quality of the new Paramount waders. They seem really well made. Time will tell how many trips I make ...

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 ...

Got on the water around 7:20 and was thinking of flippin' the tulles, but with bass breaking the surface here and there, that flippin idea never materialized. It was frustrating to say the least
as the bass were up and down fast again so instead of wasting lots of time chasing them(most were pretty ...

All bass were different and were caught on baits in the pics. Sorry to pop your bubble Colombo.

Thanks Robert and tight lines to ya.
Ok...lets take a look at this so MCFish can understand it ...

I've been seeing all your posts about the El Cap bite. I decided to give it a try. I managed a mere 6 clones in 7 hours. All of them looked pretty much like the one in the picture. Musta come from the same litter.

Couldn't get a frog bite, Caught them on a crank, jig, Huddleston weedless grass ...

Hey all,
I got to head back out to Miramar for a couple of hours 2x this week. I just wanted to get on the water and decompress. If I got bass that would be a bonus. Both days ended with only 3 fish each. I guess for 2-3 hours of fishing that isn't that bad. The water was down a foot from the last ...

Went to El Cap today, pay at the gate early. Many others there also. I knew going in I could even get skunked. No top water bites, no chatter bait bites. Switched up to throwing DS and texas rig worm at the bait being chased. I had 8 by 8am. Now at Barrett this year at 8am at least 30 most of the ...
