San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Not San Diego…but taking care of my 93 year old mom for 11 days so my sister gets a break. Mom’s Del Webb community outside Houston has small lakes that were stocked in the early days and I can usually sneak down to wet a line at sunset. Fishing in suburbia ain’t all bad!!

Thanks for sharing.

I agree. Takes the mind off worrying about how often spell check fails during my daily walk thru websites!

Nice..5.35 on a frog! Rods, don't make them like they use to...some of my favorites are 30-40 years old and still ticking!


I remember you telling me you got your rods shortly after the Korean War. They sure have held up well. :-)

Funny! I actually do have a couple bamboo fly rods that my ...

70 degrees still, and stinks bad. Went from green to brown.
A crowd of 6 boats.
Boated 3 dinks, 1lb or less. dock worker said that was the high for the day!!!!

Wow! Thanks for the report!

My man JJ. Welcome to the shit-show.

And we all thought that all the rain would help the lakes...ha!

Soon it will be Pond Murray! All that rain this winter and the City can't keep water in the lakes...hilarious! You should of taken those bass home and put them in your aquarium...before they end up like Lovelands poor fish! Nice job figuring out the bite..but you could of started with the dropshot ...

Vinny is to special to fish the ds, he has his tokyo rig.....

I think all the flooded brush and tulles is the problem. They are all way back in untouchable water.

Another decent day at Murray for you and your friend Joe. Glad you figured them out and were able to catch 7. I'll take 7 bass any day.
Might have to make a trip down to Murray when the water comes up...and to Sutherland when the water comes down....

Thanks for the report JJ. It can only get better as we enter the Summer.

I would like to order a dozen McFish sandwiches please.

“Fished the dropshot today for 31 fish!! With the best 31 totaling 32.7lbs!!”

Headed to Cap this morning for about 5 hours. Pounded the shoreline with a variety of baits until I found what they wanted to chew on, which ended up being spinnerbaits. Caught a handful of clones. Nothing big, but still catching. Looks like the heat is on next weekend.
Typical size this morning ...

Geez…I just rigged up 10 fishing rods will drop shots.
I am ready for action.

Thats how you do it, handful of rods always in the truck & usually all of them have a ds tied-on, & 1 IKA...
I try to avoid re-rigging while on the water!

Having a great time on our annual trip to Pelican Lake, Minnesota. The largies and smallies are coughing up crawdads so I have been throwing my trusty craw bait. They love senkos here also. For the evening topwater action it’s the rat for me and the whopper plopper for the other guys. The local Bent ...

Is that Mr Chatterbait with you?
