San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Made it out earlier waiting for gate to open. Weather was cloudy, drizzle and windy. I thought a chatter bait would work, first cast got slammed and it came off. Then nothing. No jerk bait fish. But the DS and senko was on fire. While others are hitting big rock piles, I was hitting the stuff in ...

I’m trying to hit the salt up here in North County on Friday, but these reports might get me back down to Cap again this Friday. Last week was fun, and it’d be good to keep adding to my experience…

My next trip, that is my plan A. Maybe Saturday! The bigger ones I see, just look, stare or swim off. Then tap clone on. Look at the pic with a graph the dots are clones.

Was in line early with 20 others. Mad dash to get on the water. I don't do mad dash. They are taking water again, it was down a foot from Tuesday. The day started off slow and pretty much had company where ever you go. Took me a while to figure out most had pulled out a bit 10' to 20'. There were ...

Geez, I guess it is apart of being old but with the recent heat waves, water going up and then down to even close the ramp and then back up a little to open the ramp at Murray,I just have not fished there much at all. With a little cooler weather in the forecast, I decided to give it a go this ...

Quick morning session at the SD River before the heat came. After an hour and a half or more or nothing, finally picked up 2 small bass on a small crank bait and then flipped a Googan Craw bait later to pick up this 4 1/2lb bass. Bass immediately wrapped herself around some underwater branches and ...

It was 7:30am and I just started to head out to the SD River. As I was driving down the freeway, I suddenly thought why not just keep going and head up to the lake...I mean pond of D & K. I know it was crazy as I would get a
real late start, but what the heck! On the water around 8:30am,missed the ...

Gate was open earlier this time and not many people. Doesn't matter I'm last on the water. Water down another 1 1/2ft. Now the places shallow are getting to shallow or out of the water. Shad are spawning, but with water dropping it will kill the eggs. Did not find a group wanting to bite. It would ...

Taking some advice from the well known local expert VinnyBass I took a trip to this San Diego gem. It was a learning experience, at least I should have learned. I got at least 40 bites, which to me is nothing short of spectacular but...I only landed 14 (I think...kinda flustered and may not have ...

I got to the lake way late, started fishing around 10 and off early. I was the last one on the lake and this is why. around 11:30 rain and wind hit hard. I was back at the bend and I hid from the wind around a point. Forgot my rain coat and my sweat shirt got soaked. It was crazy. My little SS ...

Made a late morning trip to the SD River. Did the usual things as I tossed reaction baits first. Tried about 5 different types of baits and then while tossing a mini-A rig, a nice bass slammed into it which was fun. I later missed a bass bite deep in the cover with a creature bait. Then the real ...

It was a gorgeous day out on the lake today. I was hoping for some busters, but none to speak of showed up. I threw a bunch of stuff but all they wanted was a little crank bait on the BFS rig. I ended up with a handful of clones and 4 bluegill all on the crank.

It was nice to fish with VinnyBass ...
