Otay 6/17

Post by Dannicus »

Pretty nice morning at Otay today. There was heavy cloud cover when I got there early. A few were busting here and there, but I couldn't entice a top water bite, so I switched over to a Megabass Karachi to go sub surface and wham-o.

Final count was 7. Mostly chunky clones, but good fights on my BFS gear. The clouds (or marine layer, or whatever you call it) burned off at about 9am, and I couldn't find another bite. Tried jigs, worms, cranks, and Ned's, but nada. Sometimes that bite window just seems to close eh?

Still a nice morning on a quite empty lake.

If that ramp stays high and dry, Otay should start firing big time. That water level could come up quick, at the sacrifice of Barrett if they want. The management of SD lakes is gaslighting, make me think I live in the twilight zone!

Way to be out there living your best life Dan! Keep it up=D
