Nice fish. My guess is the sign was put there to address the crowding during trout season. 20 guys in a tiny cove all throwing mini jigs at the same fish, then one guy in a boat parks there and screws it up for them. I gave up trout fishing a decade ago, I don’t want to compete against mini jiggers ...

Nice fishes dude!

Another Sunday, another 4 mile walk...with some fishing. Went late, got to ticket purchase around 1:30...then over to the other side for a walk to the dam. I always tell myself that I am going to walk fast to the dam and then fish slow on the way back...but that never happens. I decided to stick ...

Congrats on the two beasts! I'd rather have 2 big fish like that, than catch dinks all day.

Congrats!! on those BIG BASS

Very solid day for sure. Never hurts to play it safe. Too bad I missed the Video, just got home from Glamis and missed it =/

That is what I was thinking!

The fish don't count!

Chris, turns out we have a mutual friend... Eric L.

I watched it. Are those the only 2 females you saw on beds? Looked nice a nice day on the water regardless of fishing.

I knew a guy that caught a 16 but he worked for the City of Poway. Didn't count!

Yes, at least the only 2 of decent size that were not being fished by someone else. The day before Jed Dickerson broke the lake record with a 14-8.


Jed Dickerson, that the ...

Why do I feel like anyone who has strong feelings about the boat being past the bout line is probably totally fine with bumping elbows and crossing lines along with the rest of the mini-jig all-stars. Now those are some “kooks”…

They couldn’t look like bigger clowns if they were tossing a powerbait/bobber combo

Ok, Update! I have prided myself on my integrity my whole life. Period! If people want to mess with me over a simple mistake, I get it. No worries. I’ll do better next time. So, that being said I’m going to leave this video as “Unlisted” with a new thumbnail and updated description explaining what ...

Been over a week since I fished last so I decided to hit Murray. I had thought of going up to the Lake of D & K, but a cold weather forecast up there helped change my mind. Too stubborn to fish the tulles I searched and searched for shad balls and wasted a lot of fishing time. Hours went by and not ...

Fantastic fish! Fishes? Thanks for the inspiration Chris. And don’t worry about the haters — sounds like an honest mistake.

You know, I think every Spring, we need to have a discussion on fishing beds, which almost reads like a flowchart.

From the start, you have guys who are adamantly against fishing beds. And I appreciate that. I also hope they appreciate the fact that when they 'blind cast,' they may be getting fish ...

Can't see why we would try to split hairs on ripping lips. You are going out and imbedding hooks into a fish's mouth no matter if they are being preyed upon by anglers in the means of hunger or instinct. Let focus on instinct; a bedding fish is biting out of instinct to protect it's bed and a ...

Fun day at the home lake today! I was hoping that it would produce today since I talked Vinny into making the trip out to my neighborhood! The pattern today was pretty much the opposite of last week! I got into a shallow bite today that wasn't around last week. The fish were mostly fun clone size ...

Nice fish brother! Personally I think the bigger ones are the best escape artists.

Sorry for the late report but I was having some problems getting on SDFISH
Last Sunday my fish bud and I decided to go and check the repairs he had done on his boat, we didn’t think we would catch any bass because we’ve found the structure in the past to just eat up ours lures, but the main thing ...
