San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

I agree with what everyone says here… I mostly fish NOC, and this is a very good year for perch here… Mike, if remember correctly, you said you get very few perch up there (correct me if I’m wrong), so you don’t have the “problem” of the numerous and aggressive perch bite… Our soft shell crabs will ...

This beach can be tough to fish with any kind of swell, and yesterday was enough to make it a little difficult. The water seemed cooler and there was some salad in it to add too the work.. Anyway it was fun fishing with my Grandson again, and he out fished me with 4- BSP and a 15” corbina… I beat ...

Not much better luck, with 1-small BSP to show… Conditions gradually improving, except for a pretty stiff breeze out of the North, but fishing, not so much…

Conditions improving, except for the wind out of the North around noon… My buddy Norm came down and fished with me in the AM… He out fished me with 2-BSP and 2-small corbina… I ended up with 3-BSP, with 2 better grade, and 1- YFC.. I haven’t seen many yellow fin croaker in awhile, so that was a ...

Those spotties fight well for their size, and you getting the quantity all the better....

Nice Gramps.... Nothing a bigger pain or more rewarding than fishing with little ones... Ain't it great???

The LC will get you some nice fish, but it's a lure of many cast... I'm a C-rig guy with bait, and that'll get you more fish than the LC... I agree with Robertos and would give both a try... I used to walk one way on the beach and use bait, and coming back I would switch up to an LC... Now I pretty ...

Checked off the necessities... Anything more would have just been gravy... WTG..

Well he did it last night with a single and a stolen base then a walk off grand slam in the bottom of the 9th... Not bad... You guys think he can do a 50 50?... Pace is about right, but you never know...

Not much of a report, but I manged to get out to Alamitos Bay Peninsula for the 1st fishing in over a month.. It was only going to be a short trip, 'cause I'm still trying to shake a bug I caught... I was using some ghost shrimp I bought at Big Fish in Seal Beach... 1st cast and the shrimp didn't ...

In addition to my update , The group had a very good contact with the Warden and ride along . 1/2 hour after shooting time , I was first to be checked and when asked to show him one of my shells he noticed they do not say steel on the hulls . Told him they were home rolls and all were loaded with ...

Haven’t caught a surf barracuda in a long time… Never a legal.. WTG..

I like it!... Very cool....

MLB Playoffs... Ok.. I know there are a bunch of Padre fans here... And maybe one or two Dodger fans (Me :twisted: )... So lets here some chatter... Not necessarily $hit talk, but baseball talk... The Padres have really come on strong in the last part of the season, and the Dodgers finished with the ...

At least it was a nice croaker... And you got out....
Love that spot...
Butch

I agree.. Beautiful little brookie...

Yea, I’m a big sunrise / set guy.. I sometimes forget to fish watching the sunrise.. Not often, but sometimes. …

The few…. The fat… And the fun… Very nice Bill… Persistence pays…
