      @OhioFish Yeah, alot of swimbaits seem to have that issue, get a beefy rod and strike hard and hopefully the fish committed to the strike.
    5. OhioFish 0
      Looks great but it looks like it takes a lot of pressure to expose that hook enough to stick into a bass. Just my thoughts.

    Middle of the day topwater bite.Heard there are fatties in here but pond was surrounded by trees limiting fishing to this bridge. Needed the big bait for distance. ...more Weeds & lily pads eveywhere.Trees overhead were cramping my casts.

    Got a late start out of Point Loma @9:30 am, kelps everywhere, we got to the backside of the north 9 and found a nice patty. It held rat yellows and dorado. We ...more worked south, parallel to north Coronado island and found a few more kelps that held fish. Ended the day with 4 dorado and 3 really small yellows. We found water as warm as 77°!

      And other reef dwelling fish
    25. Mason Cizek 0
      Fish over there are silver. If you run along the reef you should hook up a bunch of fish. You could even try jigging the reefs, that what my buddy did. He hooked ...more up with bunches of sharks....
    26. Mason Cizek 0
      For what you're looking at I would defiantly use live bait. You can try the artificials something that will swim pretty deep. You could probably use something ...more like a shad color. A lot of the smaller

      Nope never have. Friend has though that's what he took. Lots of fish out there. Many different sizes. Most catfish out there get pretty big that's for the ...more bigger rod and saltwater you always want....

    this was about 2 weeks ago, windy during the day then it went still at dusk, I was pitching the phantom out about 15' & burning it back, the follows and ...more short strikes were a rush to watch, lost about a 7#er right at the shore, I watched her come from the depths and inhale the bait.
