San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

6 footballs is a good day.
Those Robo fat worms work great!
Thanks for the report!

Anyone know if the schedule for our lakes is just the usual this week? Only San V and Murray open Thursday like normal or are there additional lakes open/closed on account of the holiday?

Looking to get out for a few hours in the morning.

Thanks in advance!

So funny VinnyBass!!

That's how you adapt and get things done! Keep up the good work and Happy 4th of July!

It had to be hot as heck out there as I was doing some yard work this morning and stopped early as the heat
was so bad I was worried it might have end my future bass fishing adventures forever......you are a stud Dannicus !
Glad to see you are out there having fun.
I posted something from one of ...

Looks like you’re getting a lot of action on the top …..that’s great news!

I saw you out there at Otay this morning. I was on shore throwing flies for a bit before work.

Looking forward to see where you ...

Lots of fun was had.. 10 total landed this morning, 7 keepers, biggest one 19”/3-9. Happy 4th all!

Not too good. I had some small bass and bluegill go for my fly, but nothing stuck. I only had an hour to work with and it was my first time fly fishing freshwater locally in a LONG time.

Nice!

Just listening to some recorded podcasts that Bruce Smith has started. Specializing just in San Diego bass fishing. He’s got some great bass fisherman on, which I appreciate. Also, he’s covering information on the city and the county’s plans on closing some of our lakes certain days and months per ...

Nice work! I have have a few topwater bites at Cap where I almost could not see the bite and had to rely on sound. They do let you on pretty early sometimes there.
Some good ones there for sure=)

Hello everyone, I'm a rookie at fishing, I've been wondering what the best ways for catching a largemouth bass may be. I've caught one at Lake Martinez in Arizona on a pier using a simple hook and a worm, but it feels like that doesn't work for the ones out here. Been mainly using live bait and ...

Learn the dropshot rig and the wacky rig. Between those two techniques, get a pack of 6” roboworm and a pack of 5” senkos. YouTube is a great resource for learning about it. Even on the worst fishing days I feel confident I could catch fish on a dropshot roboworm or a wacky rigged Senko.

I got to the lake early and it looked perfect for top water. Nice and overcast. By the time i set up my pontoon and launched the overcast had burned off so i started hitting the shore with an assortment of smaller cranks. I picked up some small dinks close to the shore on shad raps so i made a ...

Thanks for the report. I think I will try the little cranks this Saturday, so it's nice to know there's hope.

I have been guilty of setting too early on the frog in the past too. They will hold those frogs like a soft plastic. Definitely pays to hold off on the hookset. Also if you find a spot in the reeds where you can cast back into them, that pays off too.

You are a fishing Machine! Keep it up=)
