Is it back? Is this real?

Very good sir!

Nice. see you this weekend Chuck!

Late report but I went out to the B on 5/6 in my kayak and found a good topwater bite before the sound came up throwing a popper. After that I struggled for a bit. Threw the chatter, blade and jig for a few fish and finally just started doing a lot of exploring. Lake was full of life and is so much ...

That’s a great day anywhere!

Got this guy as bycatch during a recent trip with a crank bait. 7lbs on the boga probably the biggest I'll ever catch. Thought it would be cool to share.

RIP Uppers. It was one of my favorite places to fish.

Pretty fun morning at the B for me. I had 67 by 2pm when I decided to go home. Nothing over 3 but the topwater was great for me in the morning.

The key to the topwater for me was finding the bait. It was an ok bite but it really took off for me when I spotted the wolfpacks. I would get 3-6 bass ...

That works for me, PM sent!

Started off early in Hauser throwing a jt ribbit swimbait for a few fish in the gray light, then got a few on the popper. By 9am I only had a dozen fish so I retreated to the flip bite in the back of Hauser but even that was slow for me. I started making my way back pitching ikas in every little ...

4ish, it came later in the morning on a boredom cast. I was just pitching the ika and was like ‘let’s break the monotony’

Super early, we were launching I was the one saying I was in no rush cuz I had all day. That fog was gnar.

Been hitting the B pretty much all May with decent results. Today I took my cousin but we got too lazy to pump our tubes and decided to fish off the dock. It paid off pretty good. I got my share of crappie and this nice bass on a bluegill swimbait he got a decent one on a jig. It was pretty ...

Reapers are an old school SoCal bait. Used to be that everyone threw them, like a chocolate blue vein worm. They work well on Texas rigs and drop shots too.

Dang! You sir, are redeemed by Posiedon!

I enjoyed it, didn't get a 100 fish day this year but was rewarded with some decent chunkers throwing big baits. I think next year I'm gonna focus fishing there with the bigger baits to develop a lot more confidence in them.

Went out last weekend to Santa Ana River Lakes and got this beast on hook up bait. I don’t really fish for them and this beat my previous PB by 6lbs. It weighed 8.32lbs. Super fun catch on 2lb test!

Thx my dude and I hope you break your PB many times over in my motherland!

Nice, I think I saw you out there.

Pricey, but it’s for a good cause and comes with some free stuff.
