San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Well, lots of chores have been keeping me busy, but I was finally able to head out to do a little fishing this morning. I am sure glad
I did as it has been a while. I intended to work the tulles, but nixed that after picking up a few bass on reaction baits. It was great to see and chat with @Pwy_FireCapt who was out on the water and was basically putting on a bass fishing clinic pulling in several bass. It seemed every time I turned around, he had another hook up. Anyway, I started throwing an assortment of reaction baits and to keep it brief, the bass were cooperating. Even a random trout joined the action and thank goodness shook my hook near the surface which made me happy because I did not want to take a fish home.
To wrap it up... despite having some bass come unbuttoned, it was a heck of a lot of fun fishing Murray today as I was able to land 19 bass with a few healthy ones in the mix and topped by a 4.50lb'er.

Just a few pics.... A bunch of these...... and my biggest

Nope! Did not throw a single worm. If I threw small baits near the shore, I could have caught a lot of dinks.

@VinnyBass…That was a strange, but amazing, day to say the least. I wouldn’t say I was putting on a clinic. I got a lot of micro-bass. It wasn’t until I started following your lead that I started getting any size.
I even caught a couple on a spoon, which is a first for me!

Dang! Impressive!

Love the collage you posted!
Hey it was so nice to see you as it has been a while. I actually caught a bass on a jerk bait after a small one came off on the jump.
You really have mastered that bait. I switched baits so much and probably should have tossed jerk baits earlier.
Anyway, nice job and tight lines always.

It was the "Luck of the Irish"....oh wait, St. Patrick's Day has already passed and besides…. I'm not Irish.
Actually, the bass were just in a biting mood.

Awesome job both of you!
