Continued my quest for improving my kayak crappie techniques on Father's Day with a very lazy 'gentlemans hours' kayak launch at 10:30 am. Weather was bright sunny and the water temp pushing 74.

The deeper side of the lake in the deeper channel areas seemed to be the ticket for finding them. Used ...

Went ultralight fishing again at Otay. Caught a dozen or so small bass, but the highlight was seven large bluegill, all in the 2 to 2.5 pound range. Fish tacos here I come.

Very nice it sounds like you had tons of fun out there, THANK YOU for the report and sure you'll enjoy those tacos! I'm glad most people would rather fish for bass. I found schools of gills from my kayak in 20' off the main lake flats at El Cap on Saturday. Not big ones but fun size on light gear ...

Had an awesome morning ultralight fishing this morning at Otay. Caught over 30 chunky bluegills. I was jigging 3 inch Yamamoto shad shaped worms and a small 2 inch sinking jerkbait. What a great time!

Had another awesome day at Murray with my new BFS rod and reel and some Z-Man micro chatterbaits. I just love my new setup when I want to go extreme finesse! I caught 6 of these bad boys on the day and 2 small bass. :arrow:

Happy New Year everyone and tight lines in 2024!

I am fishing it slow and twitching and yoyoing it. They seem to hit it on a twitch after a pause/fall

Got this guy as bycatch during a recent trip with a crank bait. 7lbs on the boga probably the biggest I'll ever catch. Thought it would be cool to share.

The Crappie Mecca!

Wish it was me...

Since I have nothing to report on the subject thought I'd share this really cool video of "Fishing Addict" out killing the 2 pound slabs. I watch a lot of his videos and he has that lake and live scope dialed in. He didn't have his scale. A few might had ...

Haven’t posted in a long time, I’ve spent most the fall , winter, now spring in Yuma area . Fishing and hunting.
This was the morning bite 7:00am—11:00am.

Testing.... Got this one on a mop fly with silly legs a few weeks back after a slow surf sesh.

Dave and I hit the Bay yesterday from 6am - 11:30am. Fishing in the slack and some of the incoming tide.

I get out here about 3 or 4 times a year. The only goal was to catch as many species as we could.

The bite was pretty steady all morning long. Lost count of the ...

Hey all headed out to the big bay the other day and spent a few hours fishing when it wasn’t supposed to be any good. It was kind of a slack tide but it was a weekday and I had a day off which almost never happens. I launched the tube at Tidelands on Coronado and almost immediately got a steady hook ...

bonus fish, right at the buzzer

Heres some recent shortfin corvina pics. I got the SFC bug for a couple months and let it interrupt my green fish game. It was fun, but after dropping a 9lb largemouth this weekend right at my feet, I'm kinda over it. Goin back to freshy. A couple of these fish were 26-27" the rest were medium sized ...

First off thank you to all veterans
Went to Mission Bay for the day with my entire family for Veteran's Day to have fun fish and have a BBQ
The bite was pretty good and steady throughout the entire day for us. Myself and my wife got there around 6am and she instantly hooked up on a drop shot rig. I ...

Never seen one that big all the way down there. Nice fish.

Nice bone, thanks for the video

Nice job! I usually do good on the round jig heads and wham style jigs. If you want to catch a bunch of big bones like that go paddle around the Quivira basin in Mission Bay close to shore near all the boat slips. Have caught 5-9lb bonito there like it was a wide open tuna bite

I was out there the ...
