I think the lake is going to continue to be awesome this year.

[attachment=0]Osprey 2025 2.jpgI was out on Sunday as well. (Video is just coming out today) The ospreys are crazy! Not only did I have the one pull the fish out of my hand, but saw one rob a little kid of his trout at Lake Poway this week as he was pulling it out of the water. Not sure what's up ...

Fishing San Diego Bay: Figure Out The Bite!
https://youtu.be/LrN1YwqKhOw

Hey all I hope you’re getting out there and finding the fish wherever you are. I did get out Sunday to tidelands to launch the float tube. I had an idea in mind to fish Corvina and BFS bass. That being said, I threw out my BFF ...

Excellent job! Thanks for the update!

Some of the problem lies here, county residents can not vote in city elections.
Tho the lakes are in the county , sounds like the fox is in charge of the hen house to me.
Too many deals brokered at midnight.


I agree with that one! As a non-city resident it is frustrating at best. Thanks for the ...

It is on the way...

Thanks for the input. It is truly hard to beat the Bitsy Bug. The saddest part of that being that they have been discontinued by Strike King. I guess the rest of the world didn't get the memo on how awesome they are. Get them while you can!

Usually 15-20 minutes. Like stated above I have my tube partially inflated, and I wear my waders and boots while I drive these days to save a few minutes and avoid holes in the bottoms of my waders. I have the thruster system pretty dialed in these days so that only takes a couple of minutes. Rods ...

Theres another benefit for BFS fishing also and that is it's easy on the body. I have a bum wrist and I need surgery to fix it. With the reels so smooth and the way I can cast underhand or lobing the bait and it doesnt bother me nearly as much. I still get the distance maybe not as accurate but at ...

I love my zippered waders! Absolute game changers. I found Paramount Outdoors over a year ago and the Deep Eddy Zippered Waders that I got from them are the best I have ever owned. After purchasing them I reached out to them telling them how much I loved them and let them know I make YouTube Videos ...

Hey all!
I had a tiny window of opportunity to fish on Wednesday morning so I went to...Hodges! I got in line at 5:30am with 10 cars in front of me. Got down to launch and the carp guys had already set up shop in the launch area. So there ...

Yes, very close.

Here’s the short for that.

This is just too close! #toocloseforcomfort #hooked #nearmiss #whoops #fishing #fishingvideo

Enjoyed your video on YouTube and I keep thinking about how close that hook was to your eye. Thank goodness it landed where it did. Anyway, thanks for sharing with us and tight lines always. :-)


Thanks for checking it out and glad you enjoyed it! IMG_4614.jpeg it was my lucky day! Dave proved ...

Great report! Thanks for the update and I can't wait to get out there soon! Cheers!

Made it out there for Mother's Day with a blessing from my wife. Long story short it was an epic day for me. Met up with Early release at the gate and headed out on the water. There was not much for topwater but the jig bite was on FIRE. My previous record there was 71 ...

Can you make some videos about getting skunked at Barrett? That's what we really need. Tickets sell out way too fast. You can leave the beer in.


Ha! It’s funny that you say that, because on the way in, I saw a skunk on the road and actually told Dave that I need to make a video called skunk at ...

Such a fun day! Thanks for the post! I ended up with ???# of fish and ended the day with a popper flurry. 3 bass over 5lbs! Amazing!
