I couldn't agree more!

Hey all I hope the lines are tight,
Headed out last Saturday to Lake Hodges. Met up with Early Release at the launch and immediately got fish right out of the gate. I got one on the spinner bait and immediately following that as you probably already know he got a 4 lbs. 12 oz. Beauty on a Popper. We ...

Hello all,

Got out on Hodges early with a buddy. Water temp was 66F and wind was calm. Not a lot for the report. Went along the shoreline with poppers, dragged the bottom with crankbaits and other assorted things that didn't work out. Got three for the day. One early on the popper, one mid morning ...

Decided to head over to Murray mid morning and was the only boat launch. A lot can change since my last fish report from there
9 days ago, but I decided to stick to fishing deeper waters(20'-35') again. "It is crazy!" McFish told me recently . "This is time of the
year the bass should be in ...

They have a lot of action and on a few of them I took off the back treble hook and attached a blade to make
it even more visible in the water hoping it would look like a shad trying to get away.

Great idea!!


Even the days of the Little George, they ...

It was a little chilly, overcast and windy, but the bite was decent. Caught 6 in the 2-3.5 pound range. The damage today was done on BFS gear and watermelon 1/8 oz. Keitech jig, paired with a 2 inch Netbait Paca Chunk. I fished it bouncing along rocky bottoms as well as casting it to the edge of the ...

I wrote a much more detailed report but it vanished when I tried to add pics. 7.53 lbs on a pointer 65 jerkbait! Sutherland!

Very nice Paul! Let’s hear the story!

Cold, wet day catching mini bass on a Jerk Bait. Had 7 or 8, all under 2 lbs. One about 5" long. I was going to fish to the end of a certain point and call it a day. About 30 feet from my quitting place I threw my Lucky Craft Pointer 65 into some shallow ...

I should be use to this weather..the never ending winter! I'll start out by saying "Paul stole my fish"...! I started the day fishing that area, my secret spot, threw the same jerkbait as he did and when it didn't produce right off..I gave up on it! Ok, my mistake, but that fish had my name on it ...

Got out on the lake at first light. Have to say the lake had the feel like something was going to happen. Spoiler alert, good day, but nothing epic. Did talk to someone who pulled a 6 pounder on a 10" senko. Water was 66F, wind calm, skies were alternating between scattered and broken.

Got a couple ...

Hiking in Yuma. 11-3 on the homemade slug. 20 lb mono

Da***t now I gotta go buy 4” senkos 🤦🏼‍♂️


Not that I am a betting man all the time, but knowing McFish and his tricks using roboworms, It would be safe for me
to bet you that he bit the head off on many of those senkos to make them 3" or less.
Not that there is anything wrong with biting the ...

Caught several clones and this behemoth at Hodges this morning. My scale sucks but definitely in the 8lb range. I debated on going to Otay today as it's much closer to me. I'm glad I chose to make the drive! It was great to see Pourboy out there too. Good times!

Well I have to say that I really liked my first trip to El Cap! Probably the nicest day weather wise in a long time and sometimes that means...not great fishing. But that was not the case. I don't have a boat (actually I do have a canoe, but that doesn't count) so I decided to hire a guide, what a ...

Update! After having some challenges both with recording and the video itself here is the video from that day! Great job Dave with the beautiful fish. His fish is right near the beginning of the video so you don't have to go too deep to see it. Cheers!

Ok, now Im gonna say "jerkbaitcito" for the rest if my life

Being forgetful made my SD River fishing trip a little tougher this morning. Last night I sorted out a selection of crawbaits,
senkos, creature and a few other plastic worms in little ziplocks that were geared just for the SD river. This way I could travel light
as I have a tendency to bring way ...

They are missing you back at the home...be sure to be back by noon for bingo and your pudding! Kidding you buddy...Mom said there would be days like this! Way to blow off the skunk!
