San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

They were on Facebook. I downloaded them to post here.
I feel kinda dirty posting someone else's pictures

I am going to sound like a negative Nancy here.....but here are some things in the WON story that to me seem strange.
He said he had only a 20 minute window to fish, before going to work. OK...yet there is a float tube there and it
just seems illogical to take that out, try to get it out ...

As you know from my posts in the panfish section I've had a ton of fun recently targeting large Bluegill and Crappie on ultralight gear and micro lures. So today I decided to go after Bass on the same gear. I caught 6 Largemouths. Nothing huge but they sure felt like it on those whippy rods and ...

Biggest bass I've hooked at Murray in a while. He bit on a black Senko with blue flakes. I flipped ot to the edge of the tullies and let it sink. Never even felt the bite, but my line took off so I set I set the hook. I just barely got him turned. He almost buried himself in the reeds.

The population estimates are 95% confidence intervals. So basically, there is a 95% chance the actual population is within the upper and lower bounds of the confidence interval. For example, this last spring we collected and marked 3,437 LMB larger than 12" from Lake Skinner over 4 laps around the ...

I thought of going to Murray, but honest, I'm there so often that sometimes it gets old, even
when the fish are biting. It's been a few weeks since I fished the SD River so I thought what
the heck...and there are no permit fees so I
can use the money saved for more fishing tackle.
I was excited ...

Decided to skip a trip to Murray and headed out to the SD river. Got there around 7:30 and there was even more surface area covered with a green film than last week. I imagine that with some good winter rains it will be able to flush out a lot of this yucky green water. On the positive side, after a ...

I got on the lake just after the gates opened and had basically circumnavigated it by 10 am. I caught a few of the usual clones and bluegill and decided to head back to the launch ramp to warm up a bit and relieve myself (because I suspect peeing one's waders is ill advised).

As I approached the ...

Just checking in once again.... I have been going down the big swimbait rabbit hole as of recently..... alot more boring nothing happens kind of days. However, with dedication and the willingness to learn. I found some success, some 5lbers, a 7lber, and a New Years Day 13lber. She was weighed on the ...

The clock hadn't hit 11 am and Edna from Accounts Receivable had gotten on my last nerve. Usually this happens around 3 pm, but this was a new record for her. All morning, she had been asking ME , the Sr Project Manager, when we started billing a new client of ours, when SHE , the head of Accounts ...

Haven't posted anything since my 7.25lb bass few weeks ago at Murray(Didn't want to bore you guys as just landing mostly dinks anyway), but here is just a quick post from the SD River.
Got just 3 bites this morning on a quick session at the river and landed 2 bass.
Not big by any means but still ...

I live here, it's a mess. Not only are they draining it again they don't even care to do it correctly. They have been draining it too quickly not giving the fish a chance to acclimate so the die off is huge. They have stirred up the lake causing an algae bloom and since the lake has no aeration it ...

I just wanted to share a picture of the fish I caught at Cuyamaca on Thursday. The lake is really low. Even in the middle it is only 10 feet and it was hard to locate any structure. However it was an absolutely beautiful day and had a great time cruising around the lake watching eagles, deer, and ...

Was on vacation and between doing lots around the house have not been fishing much. Yeah caught some dinks the week before last at Murray, but nothing to get too excited about. Since I haven't posted for a while, I decided to post a quick report from fishing the SD River this morning. The water has ...

Thought this was a perfect photo to show of me flying down Lake Murray blvd with my truck and boat instead of posting pics of small (and even tiny) bass I have caught recently at Lake Murray.
Actually I have not fished much at all this month and yeah recently at Murray caught one ...

For those of you interested the DFG stocked Murray yesterday with trout. I have no idea how many pounds, but it wasn't a tremendous amount, and they were small. Most appeared around 10 inches. I suspect most of them will become bass snacks by the weekend, so swimbaits should be a great option for a ...

Back for another quick river session as I decided to try something different after catching nothing but dinks over at Murray. I mean I have worked hard and only been ending up with small bass. Anyway....after tons of casts into the green strained water of the SD River and time flying by, I finally ...

Hey all. Been awhile since I posted a report and today provided the perfect occasion.
Woke up a bit later than I planned. Was concerned about the wind advisory but the forecast said 5-10MPH so I said F it and decided to go join Pourboy at El Cap.

It was cold as a witches teat when I launched ...

I went to Lake Hemet yesterday with my son. We threw night crawlers and power bait deep. At the same time fished around with gold and chrome Kastmasters for about four hours. Not a sniff.

**I know this is SDFish but i wont disclose which southern California county this is in**
There's a place i hiked to as a boyscout for weekend trips and i remember bushwacking for quite a while one time and finding a pool deep in a canyon that had trout in it. Catch up 20 years later and i couldn't ...
