A tough lake to make them come up when they're not in the mood..I knew you would figure it out!

One thing for sure......they definitely were a lot quieter without me.....ha ha

Im fairly new to serious fishing (about a year and a half now) and caught my first freshwater bass on the 20th. So stoked. Also cool it’s minutes from my home.

Nice job! Welcome to freshwater bass fishing.

Hey guys, just went to Miramar on Tuesday. Second time fishing the lake I meant to get there early but Siri couldn’t give me the directions she kept coming up with Lake San Marcus. I kept saying lake Miramar, she kept coming back with Lake San Marcus so I was a half hour late, finally found the lake ...

It was definitely a weird day yesteday. I figured with the full moon being two days prior and that weird storm system coming through they’d be bananas. I didn’t even get a bite in the morning session, came back and fished the afternoon from shore just to get the skunk off, but even that was a grind ...

Does the motor rev up to high RPMs in neutral? Then bogs in gear?

I only fished Miramar once on July 8 since they opened and had a nice morning with 11 bass until I felt really ill and had to leave
pretty quickly which was a bummer. Feeling much better and recovered from my heel pain(plantar fasciitis), I decided I wanted
to return back up to Miramar. It was a ...

My friend doesn’t remember reving it up in neutral

Outstanding!!

I was just wondering. I could be a diaphragm pump? You can pump the primer ball while you try to increase speed to see if that helps?

How are the plugs?

Does it run better with the choke on?
You can pull the carb and run a welder tip cleaner through the jets and them hit them with compressed ...

Dang!

Dang!

Vinny you are my hero! I couldn't find a decent bite when I was there last. By the way, I met a guy fishing at Otay yesterday named Derek who said he set up your boat. He was throwing spoons and killing it. Made me think of you. Glad you are back out on the water where you belong!


Thanks and ...

False advertising!!! You're making it look like mere mortals could fish Miramar and just kill it. We both know that you have the Miramar Secret Sauce! Most people will never leave the tulles and never find the chosen land! We'll keep that a secret...between you and I....and a few thousand others ...

Excellent day! When Otay topwater is happening..it's happening!

100%, the most fun fishing of this entire year so far for me has been the topwater bite at Otay. Floating in the middle of a massive baitball with fish busting all around and having them eat my topwater as soon as it hit the water ...

Otay is making up for a disappointing (at least for me) 2023.

Nice meeting you and fun fishing next to you for an hour or so. Thanks for the small popper lure. I caught a lot on it.

Also got the jerk bait working and the bootleg frog got in on the Action too.

Nice running in the double digit Kevin also. We were fishing Buster by the boat dock for an hour ...
