Went for a morning hike to celebrate my bday. Took home a couple presents. Got em on 3" drop shots and spinnerbaits. Invite yourself fishing.

I've been absolutely killing it at Murray. Fishing my BFS setup with a 1/16 oz Keitech Mono Spin jig paired with a Z-Man 2.5 inch TRD Crawz. Both in green pumpkin. I must have caught 20 keeper sized bass in my last 2 trips.

Had an awesome day at Murray today. I got 5 and my best mate Randy got 2 (his first fish from a float tube) All of them were quality bass! We had a great day.

I just put this clip together guys. These are my personal favorite areas for freshwater fishing in Ca I have personally visited. I fish Bass probably 90 percent of the time but enjoy all types of fishing. I based this list on this......Cost? Lodging availability? Things to see and do? Great fishing ...

Lake Hodges Opener 2024
https://youtu.be/F35SFcPAXTQ
Hey all, it’s that time of the year again! I am always excited to go to Lake Hodges, and this year was no exception. I had made a point to make sure that I got out there on opening day and battled the rain. It was challenging out there for sure ...

Crappie jigs caught both a 6.5 lb and a 7+ lb bass last weekend on Saturday.

I just got 1 little one this week and a better one last week on the UL 500 size spinning reel fishing the main channels with jigs, in my kayak.

Made it out early to Hodges on Sunday morning, which was no small effort, since I was celebrating a friend's birthday the night before. Got on the water and it was 60.5 F and there was that really cool fog over the lake so you couldn't really see very far. It was a very nice day on the water. I got ...

How we miss this?

Your home lake Vinny!

LA MESA— Winter fishing at Lake Murray was uncharacteristically sluggish, but things picked up on the bass scene a couple weeks ago when respectable numbers of 2- to 4-pound ...

Hello all,

We got out on the water at 0645. The usual Hodges fog was present and water temp was around 61-62 F. I started along the shoreline and picked up a couple sample size bass ( around a pound or so ). Picked around with the popper and got a couple swirls but again no takers. I had a bait I ...

Hello all,

Had a nice day at Hodges this morning. Met with Pourboy in the parking lot and we headed out a little after 0600. Water temp was a toasty 67 F and wind was calm. Immediately Pourboy hooked a nice fish on a spinnerbait, I think it was one of his first couple casts. Then I got lucky too ...

Hey all I hope the lines are tight,
Headed out last Saturday to Lake Hodges. Met up with Early Release at the launch and immediately got fish right out of the gate. I got one on the spinner bait and immediately following that as you probably already know he got a 4 lbs. 12 oz. Beauty on a Popper. We ...

Hello all,

Got out on Hodges early with a buddy. Water temp was 66F and wind was calm. Not a lot for the report. Went along the shoreline with poppers, dragged the bottom with crankbaits and other assorted things that didn't work out. Got three for the day. One early on the popper, one mid morning ...

Hiking in Yuma. 11-3 on the homemade slug. 20 lb mono

Nice to meet CorsoEnthusiast AKA Jeremy and his brother at Otay today. Both class acts, and I am looking forward to fishing with them in the future.

Myself, I ended up with 6 bass, a dozen or so bluegill, and 4 crappie. I scored the trifecta as Jeremy put it lol.

Hey Dannicus great job as usual. Was playing with the idea of hitting Otay tomorrow but the weather might get in the way. Anyhow I was looking for some recent intel on what’s working but guessing it’s your usual weapons. Thanks for posting!


One spinnerbait bass, one frog bass, a couple of bass ...

My Topwater bite has declined as we get into the middle of May. Still a lot of strikes, maybe less hookups and it ends earlier. The Jig bite is starting to take off. Lots of hits on the drop. More on the 20 second dead stick. Still a lot of healthy broad shouldered Bass to War with. I try to give ...

Unbelievable but not. Big government’s reckless spending comes to this. All starts with your vote.

Like @VinnyBass I figure you are all tired of seeing my Murray posts. Still, I thought I'd share a couple of pics of a decent bass and a large bluegill caught on consecutive casts with the same bait. Fun!
