Hope the hitting improves soon as the Padres are 23rd in the league in hitting at .235
Heck it can only go up from here. We have the talent and maybe if we played all our games in Mexico City......just kidding!
Go Padres!

Sweet!
That is one of the few lakes I’ve never fished. Well…
not since they opened it up for fishermen to access legally. Nice job and thanks for sharing.

Nice job @fisheromen and under cool conditions at the lake of D & K. Looks like you had some fun and sorry to hear about the one that got away(you will hopefully catch him and bigger ones sooner or later). The water level at the lake has been so high that I thought you had to fish sideways judging ...

Nice job out there. Looks like you guys had fun.
The smile on your son’s pic tells it all.
Tight lines always and thanks for sharing.

I wondered when "Monday Fun Days" was going to return and looks like it did so in great form. Great job out there @McFish and some nice fish. So more boats were on the water today and probably more next week, but doubt more boats will distract you from catching bass. Heck, I tried to distract you ...

Knowing that 15 north morning traffic on a weekday gets crazy and going south in the late afternoon a lot worse, I decided to head up to Lake Miramar and put in a little fishing time in my kayak. Knowing that I need to make the most of my time on the water I quickly headed across the lake.
I was ...

Not even the trout are safe from you!


Ha ha! I caught that one by accident.
All I know is those trout were really aggressive.
Anyone going out who just threw a spoon, rooster tail( do people still use them?) or some type of trout related reaction bait, I think can catch a limit. They were fast ...

And you still didn’t throw the hudd?! Oh Vinny Vinny Vinny


Touché
And to think @camobass, I bought a swimbait rod for myself at Christmas thinking I was going to really give it a go in 2023. They say some people never learn and I guess I am pretty much one of them. I will take some Hud's and a ...

Sounds like it might not take 30min with your report.
You could always cast it, then sit on your rod but and dead stick it. Ive caught two at Murray doing that while throwing a glide bait in my hobie.


Actually I do appreciate you reminding me to not forget to toss a swimbait once in a while ...

Is the water visibility still crap or did it clean up a little?

It was overcast for a long while and hard to tell. And also because the water is high, it is deeper water along the tulles
and I didn't pay much attention. In the past if you cruised by the tulles you could see the bottom a little ...

Hey @mcfish....let me know if you are planning to come down to Miramar and fish because it may be randomly closed that day
so I can let you know not to waste your time and all that gas to get there......ha ha.
I always like to be helpful.......to such a good friend.

Nice job out there on a cool morning @Big C. Looks like you and your brother had a fun morning. Glad to see you getting a little action in
on the water and fine tuning things for your Minnesota trip and future Barrett adventures.
Tight lines always

Sometimes it’s fun just to hit a lake like that for a few hours. I used to do that years ago. I’ll drive out to El Cap after work and just fish from the shore to the right of the boat dock. Catch a few bass, then afterwards stop by the Taco shop to grab a bite to eat, and head home. It was a long ...

It was so exciting as I prepped my fishing gear days before my trip and was pretty confident it was going to be some great fishing despite the long drive up the lake. Besides a selection of proven worms, I carefully packed every bait that had been successful over the years and the whole drive there ...

When o when will that lake turn back on. Glad to know the shad were spawning, sounds like a spinnerbait will start to work again early in the morning. At least you caught something, no fun getting skunked. I went twice last month and only got two bites, one of which was in the parking lot ...

Hey @stringbean …Sounds like you had a fun time which is great. Yeah…action wise, catching lots of bass can’t be too bad. Of course some of those slabs in San V probably put up a nice fight. Anyway, I have no doubt that you will be pulling in lots of fat slabs soon. Thanks for sharing and tight ...

I have had some tough trips this year to Murray where I worked hard just to catch a couple bass(thank you for lowering, then raising the water, then lowering and then raising it a little etc, etc., etc.) Anyway...My last trip in the beginning of May showed a little sign of improvement. This morning ...

Just a couple more.....
So sad....up and down water levels... My biggest.....4.25lbs

It surprised me….as Murray can be very temperamental. There’s countless numbers of times where one day the bite is on and then a couple days later everything shuts off. I struggled more than a few times this year just to get couple bass. My last trip in early May was fun but you really never know ...

And that's why you are a Pro Angler!

Actually @fisheromen, I was in my boat and not in my Hobie "Pro Angler" kayak. :-)

Correction: Mr. Vinnybass is no longer "Pro Angler"..he is now "Fish Slayer"!


SLAYER
noun
someone who kills a person or animal in a violent way.

@mcfish....I am not ...
