San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Took me 3 1/2 months to find this new site. Glad to see it.

I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you.

Depending on the presentation, how do you respond your lure to a missed bite?

Follow-up bait! If TW is missed throw a senko to the same area.

Recently I have been looking into wind direction and how it can affect the fish. I’m still lost on the subject but does anyone have any in-site to what wind direction is best for fishing ?

Heavy rain associated with Hurricane Hilary is also expected to impact California and the Southwest starting Saturday and lasting through early next week, with peak impacts expected on Sunday and Monday.

As of Friday at 8:00 A.M., Hurricane Hilary remains a large and powerful Category 4 Hurricane ...

The stupidity of the City of San Diego never ceases! They knew the dam was over 100 years old and they did nothing to plan for its replacement! Now they've wasted 11 billion gallons of water and I guarantee they'll raise your rates to make up for it!!! Morons!!

Here's what happens when someone at a TV station goes looking for internet drama. If anyone can find anything to support the claim that the lake is polluted, I'd be interested in seeing it.

The eleven billion gallons, btw, has alread been released; that's the tally for the last year.

But in ...

For LMB fishing, I'm using straight braid a lot more and can't see my line choice evolution turning back.

For the concerns about riping hooks/ baits away from fish, which combo, spinning or baitcasting would be considered to compensate more for this worry?

I am more accurate with a bait caster ...

Yep, if Queue says it's a tilapia..it's a Tilapia!

Hi everyone, I moved to Massachusetts a month ago and have been fishing a lot in my free time. I had heard people tell me that the inshore fishing here was good but I wasn't expecting it to be this good. I'm not even exaggerating, I think I've caught close to 200 striper since late August. I caught ...

Good news,
CalEPA, It's possible that the CalEPA investigation case managers can be trusted. Nobody can blame me for acting like there is a big doubt about that. I refused to take my update on the investigation alone over the phone, as has been offered, and asked for a Zoom meeting with various ...

We finally made the transition to becoming Kentucky residents!! Life is a little slower, laid back, and enjoying the country life.

After adding structure to the pond and 25 lbs. of fathead minnows, there is still a long way to go in getting the bass fishery to where it needs to ...

Many an angler’s dream! Good luck with your ecosystem.

Nice!!!

Thanks! It’s been a new challenge. Having not retired, trying to stay ahead with 6 acres of grass cutting keeps me busy. It takes 5 hours to cut on a “zero turn ridding lawnmower”

It’s nice to see the local deer makes it presence on most nights, from their hoof marks around the pond.

If ever you ...

Just read this. Passing it along.

As I find recipes I like, I will post them here and invite others to do the same.

First recipe is "Tuna for Tuna Haters" . My wife says she doesn't like fresh tuna (although she will eat canned tuna, go figure) so I came up with this. She loved it. My daughter stopped over and had some and ...

I sure miss the fishing in Southern California, especially the bass fishing. If you live in southwest Wyoming, bass fishing is pretty much not an option, unless you figure out how to target the smallmouth bass in Flaming Gorge (which I have not done, so far). But trout fishing is another story.
The ...
