San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Took the tin can out to DVL for the first time on Wednesday. Fish were just starting to move up shallow. Saw a lot of big fish cruising the bank but they were uninterested in what I was throwing. I was able to get into 9 quality fish in the 2-5lb range off beds. Key was light line and Ned Jigs/ Drop ...

Looks awesome, hope you all get your PB's now. Nice fish Otay Mike, looks like the early topwater is happening!!

Fun little trip to El Cap this morning. Night and day from last weekend were I managed 2 fish in 2 days.
Mostly worm fish, with an underspin bonus. Tight to or in cover was the key for me. Managed a mission to get one of my catches out of a bush that involved me keeping pressure on the fish for 5 ...

I launched my kayak at Otay for the evening bite. It was slow fishing, however managed to a catch few dinks. Water is the highest I’ve ever seen it at. Most fish caught shallow and tight to structure. Water temps on the colder side.

Launched at San V early morning. They had a night tournament the ...

Well I got to the lake 6:30am , very lite crowd. Looked for the mcfish-mobile, no luck.
Headed out ,very nice morning, caught 5 small males quick thought water temp is warming go look for some bluegill.
Good call, caught 6 nice ones. I posted them on the panfish site.
Looks like spring has sprung ...

Nice,
I'll see ya there, I saw nitro929 yesterday and told him about the new website.
Speading the word.

Been a good couple of weekends. Can’t wait for the next couple
Of months. Going to be good with all this water.

Nice job out there!
Looks like you had a lot of fun catching those topwater bass and they are starting to hit the surface now at a few lakes.
I think it is going to be a good summer of topwater fishing. Nothing is more exciting! Thanks for sharing and
tight lines always

Don't know how this happened

But it must be a part of getting old.

Hey...speaking of old....Today is McFish's Birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY McFISH!

He is old, but a heck of a great guy and fisherman.

oh yeah...my post is below ...ha ha

Hit Murray this morning(like you guys did not see that coming...ha ha) and it was cool and overcast. I heard of a few topwater stirrings from my buddy Larry who wrangled in some recent topwater bass, so I was ready. It is still a little early for topwater and should be going off a lot better as we ...

Any pics of the big one?

Water 70+- and so GREEN!!!!! The whole lake!!! Visibility 6" at best.
Boated 3 males in the junk. Be a month before it's, at least, somewhat clear.

wow, just wow!

I was wondering what his total weight was, too. It's not like he cheated, he "legitimately" had the biggest bag, so props to him. Sucks on ...

Seen plenty of hatched fry to green to see the beds. That place is ready to pop

Out of state licenses should be included in tournament fees. Just like lake fees here.
Most guys come from out of town.
That sucks

Hit the road at 6:30am and made the 1hr 20 minute trek from Oceanside to the most remote lake in San Diego County. Got my boat all dried up the night before but arrived to find out my cooler had tilted over and spilled all the melted ice into the boat 😩 Spent 20 mins getting that all dried up and ...

Polygraph is necessary when there are 100’s of thousands of $ involved and you have mike long’s out there as well as those walleye guys. Those guys failed a previous polygraph before they got busted stuffing lead weights and filets in those walleye. Plus random questions like a license I believe is ...

Way to perserver , it paid off. You guys had a great time.
Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos.
