Now that made me look forward to something and hopefully some big fish right around the corner for all of us.

Amen!

Supposed to be colder temps and rain coming in Feb and March. Hopefully that means a little more water too.

The clock hadn't hit 11 am and Edna from Accounts Receivable had gotten on my last nerve. Usually this happens around 3 pm, but this was a new record for her. All morning, she had been asking ME , the Sr Project Manager, when we started billing a new client of ours, when SHE , the head of Accounts ...

Nice bass!
Great well written, fresh and entertaining post....really enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing more posts from you.
Tight lines in '25 and always!

Hilarious. Where's all the yokels though?

Better hope Edna doesn't go on sdfish, she will hunt you down. Nice catch.

Thanks for the entertainment value and great fish also. I appreciate the stunningly accurate characterization. A great way to start the day. Cheers!

Hey all,
I hope that your January bass fishing has been amazing so far. After trying several of the local lakes lately with limited success at each I'm kinda wondering if anyone is doing well on the lakes right now. I had a great time fishing with Dannicus on Otay last week but it was...TOUGH! I ...

Don't think "you should have been here yesterday" applies when it comes to Lake Murray recently.
I go over to the lake often and I have spoken to lots of different anglers. Guys fishing from shore, to float tube to kayak guys and to guys in bass boats and it is just tough fishing there. Now you can ...

Yup! That's about where I am right now. The anticipation of Spring is upon me!

Really slow for me both from tube and shore. Having to grind for a couple of bites. My last couple of Cap trips I covered a ton of water and got nary a bite. It’s January for sure.

At least I don't feel so bad now. I think I may hit Miramar in the rain Sunday, just because I can.

Sunday is smart, the rain will help the air quality at least. Tomorrow is my day to get out but I may skip if the air quality isn’t great. I have my gear ready to go and a plan for a little ...

I was going to go to Murray for a few hours this morning to see if I could catch enough dinks to weigh them and see if the total weight could reach at least a pound and a half, but changed my mind. Instead I spent the morning at the SD river. Crank baits, spinnerbaits and under spins gave me some ...

Nice football..thanks for proving that bass are not extinct! Spring is coming!

A fat bass and a good story...that covers everything!

Junebug strikes again.

Great job Vinny! Glad that you got on the boards for the year.

Yeah, a lot better than the dinks I was catching at Murray so far this year. Heck I think my biggest fish there was about only about 1 3/4 lbs.

Nice angling Vinny. Hopefully the first of many to come.

Like always, one is better than none. But today, I said "one more cast" like 15 times...even went to a different body of water. And then...what ends up being the last cast yields me the joy I am searching for. Heart pumping, forgot I was cold, saw that big mouth and got really worried I wouldn't be ...
