Otay 7/30

Post by Dannicus »

Fun froggy morning at Otay. Only 5 bass, but all over 3 lbs with the best going 3.76. also managed a few beefy bluegill trolling crank baits when changing froggin spots.

I'm impressed with the quality of the new Paramount waders. They seem really well made. Time will tell how many trips I make before the crotch leaks. Because I'm always in a tube that's the only thing that ever goes.

Yeah honestly there is so much grass that a frog is really the only viable option, at least on those huge grass mats. I'm not complaining though. Frog blowups are a rush. I just have to learn to be more patient on hook sets. I missed a few by getting too excited and setting early lol

Those were some nice fish you’ve got today Dan. I bet it was exciting as heck to have bass blowup on a frog through those grass mats. Also, that was a giant bluegill. Thanks for sharing and tight lines always buddy.

I'm going on 2 years with my waders and zero seam issues. You're absolutely right though. Soggy drawers are the worst. Glad you like them!
