San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

Went on a Tuesday, Not the norm. I was up ducted by aliens and lost time in the morning. Got up at 6 and didn't start fishing until just before 10. I lost some time! Had to be aliens. Anyways started with topwater for nothing Duh almost noon. Had a fire helicopter practicing picking up water and dropping it. My main baits were jerk bait, DS and senko. Stopped with the jig was getting snagged to much. Ended up with more then last trip nothing big, fishing all BFS it's a fight. Biggest 3 1/4lbs other 3's only 3 dinks. Wind was a blowing.

Looks like you make it back to the north arm. How does you trolling motor battery hold up?
Has the mud improved for lunching?
Thanks for the report!

I play around the start of the north arm and work my way back. My battery is good, 12.8 100ah lithium with bluetooth. This trip with a lot of wind and spot locking I had 47% left. Most trips have been in the high 50% range left. I fish full days. Being lithium and can use is it all up, no problem.
The mud is not bad to the left of the docks. I drove my truck (4X4) down to about 10 feet of the water.

I've seen the Fire copter practicing at San V. in the past!

Do you have a 2 word limit on posts?

I caught some fish off that point about an hour later.
