San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Watch for a late reply today. Heading out now and the plan is to fish Pine for some part of the day. I’ve been hitting Hauser mostly as well. Time for something new.

Yea very interested to hear how it goes!


Pine was fine, but hear Hauser was too. We got on some schools busting bait up against rocky steeps and did most of our damage on reapers and minnows on small ball jigs. Biggest 3.3lbs. But also got some with senkos outside the first brush line. 44 for ...

Pine has the bigger fish and all the wolf packs.

I think Mike Long had a 18.5, but the fish in picture looked frozen!!?

Not a secret for us. We chase busters and we only got em good once, We were chasing 3 or 4 schools for hours. Our best numbers were 140, 110, and 107 but for the most part ended like everyone else's numbers in the 60's. Topwaters and irons(5 and 7 gram). Brand did not matter.

Disappointed to see ...

My favorite this year was a popper. I used the Googan one, but the Megabass PopMax one was also a good one for me. The best blowups came for me on the Pompadour though. And of course the #5 and #7 floating Rapala, which is my go to bait.

I tried to mimic what the Bassmaster guys were doing with a jig head minnow and did quite well on it this season. I even took my daughter out to the B for the first time and she ended up catching 13 keepers, three crappie, and too many micro dinks to count.

Just saw an alarming article in the UT today, front page. City Council wants to take rates up for Barrett another 34% for users. From $30.00 to $45.00! I have a call out to Bryan Norris(619.668.2014) for clarifications.......stay tuned. Meanwhile please don't hesitate to call your local City Council ...

The fight continues.....I guess this is what retirement is all about. I requested a 1 on 1 with the Mayor and yesterday received an email that the request was granted.....just waiting for the date and time from his office. Stay tuned.

FYI......Barrett is normally closed the 1st Wednesday of the month, but not opening month. The increases they are proposing will not go into effect until July if they passed them....will know very soon.....stay tuned.

Awesome day I arrived 10:30 pm Tuesday night 6 trucks in front of me . Met some cool guys talking in line . 4:30 am we're heading to the dock . 25 minutes later both my buddy and I are hooked up . Fishing on fire within an hour we have 20 fish each . In the morning I throw 4" senkos set up Neko ...

It's a stupid thing to do. I guess we aren't a demographic that they care about. If I could vote in San Diego, I'd be sure to vote against every one of them.

To the two yahoo’s that parked side by side just past the dock and wiped out yak launching and at least 3 more spaces to park and enjoy that lower beach area, pull your heads out and think of others. I don’t usually park there either, it was just simply a selfish bonehead move. Ok, rant over.

The excitement of fishing Barrett sometimes makes people not think straight. We are ALL very lucky to experience that place, I invited the Council members who voted yes to override the mayor's veto to come experience Barrett. If I can get (some of) them out there they will be hooked for life ...

I had a great meeting with the City yesterday. A lot was discussed. Understand that the program at Barrett is truly unique to both hunters and fisherman. They want our input on what we like or dislike about it. The poll below is a question that was asked to me. After thinking about it I thought ...

Hello crew, I’m wondering what your thoughts are on the potential impact of this week’s rain on this weekend’s fishing? In your experience does the rain impact the way you will be fishing (e.g., does it drive the fish deeper or shallower or impact any other behaviors)? Just curious of your thoughts ...

The only difference I see will be the road may be a little smoother......Laurie said she was going to scrap it. Will be there Sunday too. LGF.....D

I spoke to the a City Engineer on Friday...........he said "Barrett will spill in the next couple of weeks". They will not drain it as Otay is 100%. FGF.........D

I might want to stay away from the dam in my float tube if the water will be flowing over it. Could be in for a wild ride ...
