Good fish

After a good year of re-learning the game after about 20 years out, I decided to take the spotty skills I’ve built up to a small local lake before (and during) the storm this week. With almost no largemouth experience as a kid, I was hoping the time I’ve spent consuming YouTube, SDFish and other ...

Feels like spring is on the horizon.. I spent both days this weekend at El Cap. Chatted with Early release on Friday and he mentioned that he and Pourboy were heading to Cap Sunday morning. I was already tentatively planning a trip there Saturday so I'd get a chance to scout a bit.

Saturday ...

I wouldn't give up on the tube yet. Once you get it right it's hard to go back lol

Might have said HI to you on our walks. Was with my son and ran into on your way back from the dam. We went on a nice walk as well. 2 bass. Very slow. But fun day with the kids.

Kept busy all last week working on a rental property and did not fish once. So, I headed down to the SD river this morning to give it a go for a few hours. Never seem to get an early start(blame old age, or don't like to be cold?).
The water temp is still pretty cold and pretty murky from the rains ...

Fat guy float tube tip. When putting on fins, take a knee.

Glad you had a good day. Chris got one 3.5 pounder on a deep diver, I blanked for the day. We did have a great time driving around the entire lake and searching for fish. Also saw someone who caught a 50# catfish. It was an incredible fish.

Outstanding fish after a notable battle!

Awesome post mate!! Nice fish!! Fun day!

I've been off the water prior to today for for a couple of weeks. Amid some other challenges I've also been shopping for a new economical vehicle. The near daily drives from Jamul or Descanso in a heavy duty diesel pickup truck(which I need to pull my travel trailer) were killing me. I settled on a ...

After some recent warm days, I decided to hit the river again. I need to remember that we are still in February and water temp
was still pretty cool, especially at the river. After several casts with some crank baits with no takers and a few underspins, I decided
to slow it down a little. Worked a ...

Monday I fished all morning and only managed a couple of little clones buuuut...I was great chatting with Mcfish on the lake. I believe he said he did about the same as me lol.

Today (Tuesday) was a different story with 11 fish total. Most were clones with the best coming in at 3.45 lbs. The water ...

Fun jig bite at Otay today. I finished the morning with 11 fish total. Most were in the mid 2 lb range, with the best being a 3.2. I saw a bunch of males up on beds, but only one big female, and she wanted nothing to do with me.

All in all though it was a ton of fun!

Spring is finally here tight ...

Looks like a beautiful day. A few fish are just a bonus.

Late start to making a fishing decision combined with 8 West & 15 North traffic, I finally was ready to launched my kayak this morning around 8:30 up at Lake Miramar. Tossed some swim baits for a while and then wasted a lot of fish time going way down to the end of the lake to Escondido arm for one ...

After having fished both days last weekend, I thought I might take Monday off, but with rain in the forecast this week I thought what the heck right? Well, I just narrowly avoided the skunk at Murray. I only landed one, but she was a little football.

It's been a feast or famine start of the year ...
