If they keep taking water out, we might go shopping for all the lost lures. I swear that lake has more of my tackle than any.

It now owns my trick anchor and dive reel it was attached to. What a bonehead thing to do as im ordering a new one. First thing in the morning I was rounding the corner ...

Went to Miramar for a couple hours this afternoon after reading some reports here. A few fish busting on shad here and there but weren’t interested in anything I threw at them. Landed one on a small jerk bait near some tules. This fish fought like one twice his size which was fun. Might head out ...

Many of the bass are eating baitfish and had success with reaction baits. The fish fight hard because I believe that
many have never ever been hooks as there is not heavy fishing pressure up there and last year from September on it was closed to
water craft till July of this year. Good luck if you ...

This sounds strange, but I just did not feel like going to Lake Murray this morning(despite the fact they are biting)and decided to go down to the SD River.
I have not fished there since late June and lately it has just been too dang hot. I figured that I could fish a few hours this morning and get ...

Hi all,
I finally have some time to head out and explore the IV next weekend. I've been hearing for years about the miles and miles of fishing opportunity out there and am finally going to pull the trigger and experience it for myself. It's a big place so reaching out here to see if anyone can ...

brush hogs.jpg
Hey....just curious on if others throw Zoom Brushhogs. They been around since 1977 and decades ago they were pretty darn
popular as a very popular type of creature baits. I remember using them back then, especially at El Cap and Morena
with great results. Then years later they(many ...

Very nice!
Always enjoy the videos and watching you on the rougher water the first 20 seconds, I ran to the medicine chest to take some
Dramamine, but put it away as the water calmed down. Always feel like I am fishing right there with you and great to
see your post and hopefully there are many ...

Great video as always Chris and super job with the jig. San V is not known for being a good jig fishing lake but like you I love throwing a jig and have had some success especially on back side of island with one. Great looking rod btw. Hope to see you out on the water my friend and thanks again for ...

Awesome as always Chris

On the lake by 6 and off again by 10'30 because it got hot!

I launched at North Point and headed Southwest. Caught a couple on topwaters but there really weren't too many busting that way. I picked up a couple more swimming a small jig with a Keitech fat impact for a trailer.

After I kicked back ...

I know it is always a few degrees cooler in Chula Vista at Otay, but takes a man of dedicationI to be fishing in
this heat and my hats off to you. Being on the water for a few hours and catching some bass had to be fun
and was a heck of a lot better than my day. The only thing fishing related was ...

Float tubing around the island will get you torpedoed by a wakeboarder...

It’s funny I didn’t even know there was a rule about how far you could go in a float tube at San V. I guess that’s why you never see guys way out there.
Not having a float tube, I just figured guys didn’t wanna go far out in the lake from where they launch. See… you learn something every day.

Went for a walk with the 3 amigos. Caught several fish on each lure. Biggest was shy of 5 on a Matt waker.

A preview of coming attractions to a theater near you!

Nice one! Look forward to it=)

Out now! It’s in the Barrett reports

Nice I check it out. Surprised it did not come up in YouTube notifications, as I am a subscriber?

Haven been to Murray in 2 weeks and decided to give it a go since the weather finally eased up a little. Bass were up and
down quickly and mainly concentrating on eating shad. Picked up a couple clones on spoons and then started tossing a small
jerk bait, then a super fluke.
After a bit, I thought I ...
