San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

I love the motivation, drive, enthusiasm but lets be realistic here.....
Having a hard time walking the terrain of our local reservoirs @ 70+, but you're climbing fences with gear, & running from the sheriffs...

If I do a little tresbassing, I’m a criminal…But if I wanted, I could walk out of Albertsons with a cart full of stolen groceries with no consequences and be a TikTok hero.

Happy new year bass anglers!

Spent the last weekend of 2023 out at El Cap. On Saturday it just felt like even though the shore bite has been really tough recently, the rain and being 3 days post full moon made me feel like there was a chance to pick up some quality bites.

That hunch paid off. We ...

Well, there are times when I just feel bad posting too much...especially when it comes to Lake Murray. I have posted so many Murray
reports that many of you guy are probably tired of seeing the same old blah, blah, blah. Heck, if I wan't me, I would probably even be
saying..."Geez, another ...

Took my son Nathanael ultralight fishing today at Murray. Caught 7 dinks and one nice fish between us. He had a blast!

We were fishing tiny Brush Hogs t-rigged with 1/32 oz bullet weights. Casting to the rocky banks and the edges of the tullies and dragging them back. It was a relaxing awesome way ...

It's the theory of relativity..... Dinks on ultralight tackle= Fun. A nice grade of fish on ultralight tackle= of boy I hope the line don't break=-D
Nice work!

Are you sure your first fish isn't a baby walleye.....hahaha! Good job getting out there buddy! Can't wait to see what 2024 brings!

Hear hear!

Thanks for the post! Hopefully getting to Murray soon for the first time! I always enjoy your posts. Cheers!

Rumor has it, JIMBO is coming out of retirement this year and will be putting on a clinic at Murray

He needs a flash since all his huge catches have been at night!

Got on the water a little later than usual this morning, launching at about 8:30 with the air temp a crisp 32. Made for a very cold first run! Ended the day with 7 with the biggest only 1.68lbs. Don’t take any pictures because I was pulling them up from 55-60ft so it was unhook and get them back in ...

First of all nice job out there Moose. Catching bass in the winter is always rewarding.
And always fun to see your fish reports and pics.
Speaking of pics.......I fixed your original pics and if you go to these sites posted on SDFish, it might help you with future pics
that are sideways or upside ...

Well I am from Lakeside so……..gotta go to the tank top!

Happy Birthday good day there.
Mine is on Sunday and wobbling if I want to go.

I've been absolutely killing it at Murray. Fishing my BFS setup with a 1/16 oz Keitech Mono Spin jig paired with a Z-Man 2.5 inch TRD Crawz. Both in green pumpkin. I must have caught 20 keeper sized bass in my last 2 trips.

Nice job! You’re doing better than anyone I’ve talked to there in the last few weeks. Skunks and one fish or two fish is the best I’ve heard. Guessing small baits is the key to success. Thanks for sharing and tight lines. :-)

And I know you're been catching some. You were landing one just as I ...

The small stuff works but if you want the Big Girls, throw them some meat. The Females will suck down Crawdads to get calcium for their eggs, mostly though, they will eat any meal that is easy to catch. A minimum of effort. They are slowed down by the cool water. If you were to dive down(I have) and ...

Thanks for the update. I’ll give that a try!

Killin' em in the dead of winter. I have some very similar jigs that I've been meaning to try out there.
