Thanks for the report!

Hey, nice job out there.
Yeah you missed some fish, as we all do sometimes, but you proved that fishing on Friday the 13th wasn’t gonna stop you from catching bass. Thanks for sharing and tight lines always.

Nice job out there Robert. Always fun to see a report from you. I’m not fishing as often as I normally do so I gotta snap out of that.
Anyway, best wishes and tight lines always!

Some folks fish just too much. Just kidding, there is no such thing. Glad you got them!

Great job and u got your gear back a plus I’m going lol hey Vinny I built that Ada ramp at Miramar handicap access to boat dock around 2005 basically myself took almost a year so I like to go so I can see my trex ramp 😎🎣👍

The guy who was in charge at Miramar back in the day was named Rick , and your correct about him being way cool, Hey Vinny,I’m glad you slayed the fish and didn’t lose your rod. Losing a rod is very traumatic and expensive, it almost happened to me a few weeks ago at Murray. Right on man !! I hope ...

Even a little time up there can be fun.
Thanks for sharing. Tight lines

Dude…you know that old saying about sinking ships….

Spent the first 3 weeks of vacation camped at Cottonwood AZ. Took day trips to the Grand Canyon, Tuzigoot, Montezuma Castle and all the surrounding monuments and towns. I never did locate a good spot to launch my tube so I didn't fish for 3 weeks.

The DTs started to set in. Uncontrollable shaking ...

Spent a lot of time throwing onto bass swirling around the surface feeding almost exclusively on small shad. Still exciting but then you start seeing that 90% of them are very small 8-12" bass. Every once in a while maybe a 2lb bass would jump but even then that was rare, but that is what keeps you ...

I found a pattern on Lake Mohave my last day here. I got on the water at 3 am, and immediately headed to rocky areas I identified yesterday. I was casting weedless craw baits on to the bank and bouncing them down steep rocky banks.

Ended the day at 11am with nine largemouth and one smallie. Most of ...

Nice shore day...what were you throwing?

...and far, far away, I ventured up to the Lake of D & K. Fisheromen and Mcfish were already therehaving the advantage living in Ramona and a hop skip and jump from the lake. Picked up just a couple on top with a few others found freedom tossing the hook while those guys were having a lot of action ...

Great info as always!! Barrett Sun but looking for a Cap trip the following week. Need to keep that ramp underwater
