An Otay kind of Sunday
Pretty nice day today at Otay. Ended up with an even dozen. Nothing huge, but healthy, fat, little footballs, and a lot of fun none the less.
All fish were caught on a 1/8th oz. Bitsy Bug jig with a green pumpkin Z-Man TRD bugz trailer. I was casting the edge of the tules and dragging it back to 10 feet of water. Most of the bites came on the fall or bottom twitches in said tules.
It was a sunny, beautiful spring day. Topwater is likely just around the corner boys!
I saw @otaymichael getting on the water just as I was leaving. I'll look forward to his report to see how he fared. He said he was heading to Harvey arm.

Re: An Otay kind of Sunday
Good seeing you as we headed out.
Did better a couple of weeks ago actually. Stuck with the reaction bait and the report was the day before there was a lot more happening. I’ll take a few over not going at all huh? Water got up to 67° in the back.

How deep is the water at the edge of the tules?Dannicus wrote: Tue Mar 18, 2025 6:13 pm Water is still pretty green but clearing some. Water temp was 61 where I was.
Is the water just green or do you bring gobs of snotty algae back with every drag of the jig?
Thanks in advance.

Re: An Otay kind of Sunday
I wasn't bringing back too much elephant snot but I fish light (1/8 oz ) jigs. Water depth at the tules is dependant on what tules you are fishing. I found a range of 3-15 feet at the edge. I caught them in all depths.Gotfish? wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 6:30 amHow deep is the water at the edge of the tules?Dannicus wrote: Tue Mar 18, 2025 6:13 pm Water is still pretty green but clearing some.
