I enjoy watching your youtube videos, always catching those monsters..

Great video and catching! Hodges was my late 80’s, 90’s go-to lake and even though its a fraction of its former self, you brought back memories of the hot morning bites with cranks and blades parallel to the banks, and seemingly a better grade of fish. Oh and just when I too was wondering where the ...

Thanks for the great report and video. Always enjoy them and thanks for posting. Good luck at Barrett.

Love Hodges. One of the reaction bait lakes in SD as far as I’m concerned. Hundreds of square bill, crankbait, chatter bait and blade fish caught there over the years including my 2 biggest fish 10.3 and a 10.4 caught during a tourney. I hope to find my way there this weekend

I've always felt ...

IMG_8436.jpg Here are a couple of pictures of the fish I promised to upload from yesterday. After reading the responses of the catches that were made about the sizes of fish caught leads me to the conclusion that the fish are highly concentrated in the water that is left and it does give me a ...

So funny, I kept waiting for the beer and just about gave up, then to my surprise.....
Thanks for sharing, looked like a great day. Love the May Gray and June Gloom on the lakes.

Nice meeting you as you were leaving Chris. Great video as always. Good luck at Barrett and I hope my tips for Barrett work for you as they did for me. Tight lines friend.

My buddy caught a nice one 8lb on bait on wed evening I "only" got a 6 lb on hernandez side

20230605_092419.jpg June gloom..just what the fish ordered! Water temp 70-73, air temp not that nice! A stiff breeze blowing most of the day. I got on a solid pattern right from the start, working a dropshot in 15'-20', off steeper banks with rocks! I brought 23 fish to the boat, not counting a few ...

sweet, good job.

Not San Diego…but taking care of my 93 year old mom for 11 days so my sister gets a break. Mom’s Del Webb community outside Houston has small lakes that were stocked in the early days and I can usually sneak down to wet a line at sunset. Fishing in suburbia ain’t all bad!!

70 degrees still, and stinks bad. Went from green to brown.
A crowd of 6 boats.
Boated 3 dinks, 1lb or less. dock worker said that was the high for the day!!!!

Did you catch any sac-a-lait, along with them bass.

Cool video, thank you, for the report.

My pops and I love these videos man! Love the brews! Keep them up. Tight Lines and Cold Ones

Don't you just hate using baits that work!!!?

Once again great video I think we all agree you do a fine fish report. Thanks so much for sharing !!

Great job out there. Thanks for sharing the excitement with us. Tight lines

This. I did all my damage today on a black 3/8oz jig with a craw trailer.

Usually I hit up Hodges in the mornings, but today I had a couple hours to spare, and so I decided to head out at 2:30pm – and boy was it HOT, and WINDY. :twisted: I totally forgot the wind picks up big time in the afternoon. And it's probably why I only saw a couple kayaks and a float tube in the ...
