San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Hit a lake for the first bass fishing since mid November. It wasn't an epic bite, or even a steady bite, but I was rewarded with one nice one, going 4lbs-12oz on the digital. It bit a pumpkin/purple jig with a pumpkin/purple Power craw pinned on. I must give props to Pourboy for that color ...

Well left my house late Sunday morning and took my kayak down to Otay. Didn't arrive till 8:45, but did not matter much as
I mostly wanted to just get my PA 12 back in the water again. I have not taken it out since late November. Anyway....it was
an easy launch as I parked right next to the water. I ...

Awesome job Dave You love those lil crankbaits and they produce!

Nice belly on that mama! Great report..Thanks!

fat fish! Nice hat!

Great, now I have to convince my wife I need a BMF set up! Between you and Dannicus it’s pretty obvious that it works.

Well I stayed up late(1a.m.) and with the clocks pushed ahead the next thing I knew it was morning. I didn't sleep well and woke
up a number of times and kept thinking about fishing even though I had not planned to fish today. After breakfast I quickly made a
decision to fish and started gathering ...

Wish I would have gone there today. I spent 10 hours at Hodges and ended up with only catching one grebe on a crank. Great job!

But did it fight good? The weight?


The fight was not that of a pelican but was ok. The guy did stab me multiple time in the hand with its beak. The thing is so ...

I've missed my San V Mondays! I got to the lake in the dark, who invited all these people? I'm thinking there's some pre-fishing going on for the tournament this weekend! The water is probably up 20' from my last trip here, now I know where my Sutherland water went! The first couple hours were a ...

Hey man, great job out there. I wish I could say that I did better than you, but that would be a straight up lie. It was great sharing the beverage that will make it on a video soon. I can’t make one from the outing I had, as I only had a bird for my catch of the day. Cheers and I’ll see you on the ...

The Fishin’ Magician. I miss Hodges having done really well there for many years, more Bass specific since ‘75. Unbelievable in its Heyday, still bigger than a pond. You found the Bass and then put the hurt on them. Well Done.

Thanks for the report, did you notice the water temp toward the end of the day, how much did it go up in the shallower areas? John and I are heading out on Friday and I'm wondering if we should do San V or El Cap.

I was mostly on the main lake, didn't go up Toll road or Kimball...at 2:00 I still ...

Been out at my favorite local body of water a lot lately as things have been pretty fun there. 3 trips over the past week and all of them produced fish, mostly of the 2lb+ variety but nothing bigger than 3 and change.

Pattern has been a little different every day. Saturday morning was all power ...

Another outstanding day!!

Nice job out there. Your smile says it all.
Thanks for sharing and tight lines always.

My second trip to Hodges and it was fun to get them on popper, did get a blow up on a frog!
Ended up with 3 bass. Biggest was 3.5 lb

With a little boat surgery, got 2 today.
Missed one pickup.
All on drop-shotted pumpkin Kreatures.
Got a chance to cruise the shoreline for the first time this year.
No well defined beds yet; but some smaller males are hanging around shallow developing beds.
Today's catch was all in about 20' of ...

Nice brother your out there catching them..

Great job out there. I’m so jealous. Not making it out there this week. Can’t wait for the next session. See you on the water.
