I haven't been fishing for almost 3 months... well a few times at Crissy. Today I tried a 100 casts with a spinner for Salmon. No fish. In the past, we used to catch Salmon August and September but looks like the past 3 years the fish are coming in in October. I also tried other lures for...

Ugh I fell into the trap again. Yesterday morning I drove all the way to fricken Frisco and our region's $6 a gallon gas and $7 toll among highways full of rain derived accidents, to find that the GGNRA shoreline is occupied by Escape from Alcatraz event. Waste of time and gas. Why can't they...

So many unleashed dogs in the environmental preservation area. How come? Its not like these people are from out of town. sheesh

took luningning (my boat) out to the other bay in the bay area, and got some dungy's and rock crabs in just a few hours. water was lake calm and there were dozens of small boats out. even started to warm up. i almost ran aground since there are shallow areas here and there. when it was shallow...

went for a bike ride today from fort mason to the bottom of golden gate. took a photo of a few kids plugging for stripers at high tide. they were using rapalas or swimbaits. if i were them i would use a wood plug like a bottle or pencil. the key is to keep the lure in the water longer, dancing...

had to put my boat in the water to fix my trailer, after it was done of course i took the boat out. two days in a row, i was trolling for salmon with metal spinners like Mepps and Benicia tackle shop-made spinners. No fish but i marked many big fish on the fish finder at 30ft. On the second day...

some small stripers showing up in my area. i'm getting bored of the lake and the water levels going down are disheartening. So in the Straits of Solano county i think I figured out a shore spot using a fly fishing/jigging technique for the rapidly moving water and started nailing some small...

took my dad out on the cattle boat in san diego for some 1/2 day calico bass action off La Jolla last weekkend. It was kinda slow and overcast so the water was dark and the bite was not off the charts. For rookies we did poorly, catching about about 6 fish, two keepers. Other people were...

decided to go to the lake for the first time in awhile (since they blocked off one way for construction) out here is Solo county. One on chatterbait the other on blade bait. In the weeds. today this cool morning. Both big ones probably guarding their nests.

is there any fishing in SoCal's big bear lake? i'm going there in few weeks for vacation.

nevada, near las vegas I was there last week. Since I drove my truck, I had my bay striper fishing gear already, so I went. You can get a nonresident fishing license online. I got it on my cellphone. There is a national park entrance fee at boulder city. And then you can go find a spot. The...

i broke my Daiwa DXS rod yanking on a snag. I found a new Daiwa North Coast, which is quite similar. It was only $60 at Sweeny's in Napa. baitcasting 8'6" two piece 10-20lb mono which is my style i also got a Piscifun Torrent baitcaster for 33 bucks on sale right now on their website. came next...

this coming weekend I hope to go fishing in San Diego. what's to catch? Probably will just go for easy fishing like Macks with my dad on the pier. and then after that my life is slowing down. going to have a surgery. I probably won't be fishing again after that until maybe December or January...

after several years, my surf king finally snapped just like what I've heard others report. Snapped at the butt end of the two piece rod at the connection, while casting. What sucked was that I had brought two rods, and first, my cheap bass pro surf reel got a failed anti-reverse. So, I switched...

I fished it hard for 3.5 hours from the wave organ to the east beach yesterday morning with lures. There were a handful of pluggers out too and lots of boats. I didn't see anyone hook up, even me, except one guy on the boat that was only 40 yards offshore. He got a 30+ inch flattie which is what...

caught a couple spotted bass yesterday. small but strong. I guess my lure this year is the white chatter bait. nothing else works as well, except the rattletrap, which was killing them last year.
