Decided to grab a boat and give more of the lake a try than I usually have access to walking the shore. Went with my buddy Chris (gotta have someone to drive the boat...). Day started with Pourboy Early release intros at the boat launch, was great to meet in person! Then we drove all over the lake ...

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 ...

Welcome back @Dannicus ! Glad to see you got some of your stuff straightened out and a new
vehicle to get you back and forth places...especially to the city lakes! Excited to see your post, I glanced over it quickly at
first and looked at both pics to see which bass was over 3 pounds and then ...

Excellent! Persistence pays off again.

Way to put in work, Mr. VinnyBass.

From what I've seen from your posts, this place looks to be a very interesting fishery, very different from your local bass pond. Keep gettin' em, as it seems you have spots dialed in.

That's a chunky one right there..... nice catch brotha ...

Awesome brother!

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 ...

Nothing but minis most of the day. later started finding a little bigger ones nothing over 2 1/4. (little dude pics) added the one pic it is so pale. Big C. was at the dock going to rent a boat but they are not open on Tuesday bummer. So I offered the back seat. Nice guy, looking forward Barrett, we ...

Nice job on the bigger models. I do obsess about my lake in Minnesota in June where I get my bigger models.

Concession closed. Used Iron ranger. Had a nice half day on the water today. Nice warm sunny Afternoon. Semi windless. Water 65. Fish on beds. Got some real nice top water action going. While leaving one of the Lake staff said that the lake may close on Saturday due to an algae bloom according to a ...

I had another fun day there yesterday (2/28) numbers-wise anyway. Caught maybe a dozen fat clones.

A shore angler tied into his PB and asked me if I had a scale, so I kicked over to the bank and showed him how to use it. His bass came in at 3.4 and he was positively giddy about it! I was very happy ...

This is awesome. Fish moving on up. Love it.

Yep. Don’t think I caught a fish in deeper than 3’ of water

Nice specimens! It's always good to get out during the week.

I caught their little cousins.....

Thanks.
I very seldom fish on a weekend, as that is one advantage of being retired. If I do ever fish on a weekend, I try to go on a Sunday as it always seems to be far less crowded than on a Saturday. Tight lines. :-)


I hear ya ...

Nice job Vinny. Looks like the bite is kicking in.

Is this the famous pre spawn bite I read about? When does spawn start?

With rain in the forecast the next 3 days, I decided to get a little fishing in this morning. Was trying to make a decision to fish mostly
shallow or maybe just deep.....so I fished both. I mixed it up in deep water with blades and spoons and despite not finding the huge
schools of shad like in ...

I am catching some bass off of beds right now at Murray.
