San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Let's say a jetty is accessible to the public from a certain point.

If you navigate the jetty below the high water/tide line, can you fish the entire jetty even though above it may be private property?

I thought that California law said that you can't own the water. You can only own the land ...

... get back at it!


No pun intended! :-D

Back spasms suck. I used to suffer from 'em years ago since I was diagnosed with DDD (Degenerative Disk Disease) and I'd be out for days unable to even walk. No amount of Flexeril would help.

Glad you got back out! Sucks about having to navigate ...

My thumb was finally dripping bright red blood, and yet I was smiling ear to ear, having just released my PB Spot. It kicked my ass like if I owed it money, ripping drag from my still-new-to-me Stradic 2500S in a tug-of ...

Anybody ever get tired of one particular type of fishing so much they take up an entirely new type?

About a dozen years ago, I was fishing A Not So Secret Lake almost every weekend, and we'd have triple digit fish days most of the time from shore. Yeah, they were your cookie cutter 2 pound bass ...

Always good to get out! The fish are just the icing on the cake.

The poll question is:

Imagine the poor server crashing in April when ALL tickets are sold at once.

:D

Im curious how the ...

Lip 'em bro! No need to gill them.

Nice catch!

I know the common consensus of the YouTube pros is mono or braid if it floats, and flouro if it suspends or sinks.

I've got a buddy that fishes the local pond with me and is full steam ahead with the BFS. But, what I've noticed, that in open water with baits with trebles, he is golden! Rarely ...

That looks exactly how my buddy does it. Just drag all the grass with 'em. Makes 'em look bigger.

Bladderless? Does that mean that it's permanently 'inflated?'


No it means it is built like a white water raft. No insert bladders which are covered by a nylon case zipped around them. Like a modern tire on a car...no inner tube.


Gotcha!

Float tubes have come along way since my POS ...

About 20 years ago, I began wearing sun gaiters/face shields because I found myself in sunny conditions a lot, and sun screen on the face was a losing proposition as it had to be constantly reapplied and sun screen in the eyes is as fun as a kick to the balls. At the same time, I had adopted SPF ...

I catch 'em accidentally while fishing for other stuff. Whenever I try to target them specifically, I catch nothing.
