I was able to get the night off so I went to Irvine when I got off work this morning.
Had my tube on the water by 8:30 and by 9:00 I had my first two fish, a trout and a bass.

Fishing was pretty good for the next hour or so I got a few Crappie, another trout (which I lost at the net :o ), and a really nice bass on a mini jig!

For some reason the bite pretty much shut off at around noon and it was very sporatic until the end of the day with only a couple more crappie showing up.
They did decide to start running wild fire drills on the surrounding hillsides and I got some pretty cool pics of the chopper.

I've been awake for 26 hours so I need to pass out for the rest of the night...

what kinda jig were you throwing out there?
most were on a 1" Chartreuse tube with a White trout worm tail but I did get a couple on Yellow & White and one on all White.
All were with a 1/32 insert jig head.
