The City is trying its best to ruin the lake!

Decided to visit Otay this morning. Got on the water about 615, immediately worked my way to the tules and began flipping the edges with no sinker rig plastics and quickly broke the skunk. Got another one just a couple of casts later as the rain started to come down. I fished that spot for 25 more ...

Got a free rental for paying 5 today started beginning Harvey both my buddy and I hooked up 3 each all solid 2 pounders had to weigh nicest one to make sure fat belly’s were nicer fish for most part wind made it difficult to fish anywhere but we still managed at least a dozen each my buddy found ...

It was overcast and chilly early this morning at Murray. I caught 4 fat clones on topwater early before the wind came up and forced me to move to the bottom.

I posted my favorite BFS topwater baits in the BFS section for those interested. All the topwater fish today came courtesy of the tiny ...

Grabbed some gear and tossed it in my kayak and headed away from Murray and up to Lake Miramar this morning.
Not a real early start as I was on the water just before 7 and saw only one other angler fishing in a float tube. The water was glassy and nothing broke on the surface so I went to my usual ...

Got rental again lol caught few in Harvey but decided to try other parts was good call between my buddy and I again finished with around 50 mostly all clones no bigger fish my largest at 2.64 all on neko senco bunch diff colors 5” on bfs

Misty overcast morning which was perfect for top water action. Went across the dock and got one on the popper second cast. Worked along the way to Harvey and got a few more, blow up on a frog but missed.
Looked like there was a tournament because there were 20 boats down Harvey! Found a flat area ...

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 ...

A quick change of plans. After just hammering them last week, I was sure I knew the pattern for today...nope! Started out throwing the same stuff as last week, only got me 2 small fish.I changed up some baits, didn't really help! I noticed a few busters out in the middle of the lake, figuring they ...

Got 4 dinks on neko 4” lizard and 6th sense worm didn’t want dinks tearing up my good plastics lol bunch people all catching dinks fished from 630-930 no pics of dinks

I’ve been going to Loveland for 40 yrs u don’t have to tell me anything it’s over run by kids I tell people on fish brain if they post at Loveland it will ruin the last free Jem of San Diego I’m an alpine local grew up there lived there since the 80s I posted on here because it’s now a younger lake ...

I rarely guerrilla fish anymore (1. Trespass fish or 2. Fish in remote places where machetes are needed) but I am interested in reading about a Loveland comeback after the s*** the water authorities pulled by draining it. Thanks for the forbidden report! 😉


Yeah I am same now am not willing to ...

Still open? Didn't see any recent reports so didn't want to drive that wonderful road for no reason

This is really sad when it gets to the point
where you can’t even go out and fish out of
a boat on s lake because there’s not enough
water to launch.
Thanks City of San Diego!

Yes- I was there today. The buoy in the middle is tied to a rope, which can easily get hung up in your prop. That marks the end of the ramp. Looks like we have a week left.

The last time I went to the SD River(4/23), I saw lots of floating dead bass and only got one bite and was very lucky to even catch a micro bass.
This morning did not see any dead fish which was nice. I covered a lot of water, first tossing a fluke and a few other reaction baits and no takers. It ...

Pretty soon we are going to have to go to Yuma if we want to launch a boat!
