KingKenny04 Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Hey all! Went out on Lower Otay last weekend with my Dad and some friends. I used to fish quite a bit when I was younger, but the Marine Corps kind of got in the way of that and last weekend was the first time I'd been bass fishing in years. Needless to say I got the bug back! I went out on Hodges yesterday and had a hell of a time trying to catch anything at all. To be honest, I sort of expected that given that it's July in southern California. Was surprised I even caught the two that I did. A limited choice of tackle probably also contributed (a few different robo worms and a couple of cheap jigs was it). Also, I DEFINITELY now understand why so many folks fork over the big bucks for bass boats (or at least trolling motors). Trying to maneuver a rental boat using only a 5hp Honda outboard and an anchor is a huge PITA. So that's basically my backstory. Any tips for the San Diego area? Guides, trips to Havasu/Castaic/wherever, or electronics are an absolute no-go, I'm poor as hell (E3's don't make a whole lot). I'm basically limited to the San Diego area and rental boats. Hope to learn a lot here! So glad I got back into this hobby. Quote
Mattlures Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Try Barrett it can be stupid easy and good fun. Jennings for cat, and Cap is probably the hot lake right now. You can also fish of the peirs in the bays and its free. Quote
