Haven’t been to Otay in ages was one of my favorite lakes back in the 80’s along with Hodges, we used to kill it in Harvey’s arm, I’m going to try and get my friend ( Ramona ) to take his now repaired boat down there. Curious if the trees way down Harveys are covered in water, what the level the ...

Thanks for the offer! I reel right and cast right. I have a strange technic where I switch hands while the bait is in the air. Especially with baits that I want moving right as they hit the water. Or like a spinner bait where I want the blades spinning the instant it hits the water. I even find ...

This generation is scared to hike that far thank god

I rarely guerrilla fish anymore (1. Trespass fish or 2. Fish in remote places where machetes are needed) but I am interested in reading about a Loveland comeback after the s*** the water authorities pulled by draining it. Thanks for the forbidden report! 😉
