Bob has been up at Lake San Antonio for guide trips just about every single day this week. We decided to fish it one last time today before our busy work schedule next week and I’ll be heading for the Team 57 High Sierras event at Parcher’s the following week.
The bite has slowed down somewhat and we wanted to spend a relaxing day scoping out some new areas on the lake for future trips.
Fished from 6:00am until around 2:00pm and headed home. Metered a lot of bait balls with fish all over it but the Stripers weren’t very active today. Maybe because of the spike in water temp…? Hit 79 degrees today. Saw a few sporadic boils and even though the fishing was far from spectacular, we did manage to nail two beautiful DD Linesides for our efforts. :Big Grin:
I’m really looking forward to fishing this lake again… especially when the boil starts. :Twisted:
Thanks again Bob, for the invitation, it was fun trying some new things today and running some really off the wall stuff. It would have been hilarious if we would have caught a Striper on that “Special” rig that you were running today. LOL At least my new swim bait pattern got a fish!
Get a hold of TroutOnly and book your Summer trips now, the fishing can only get better!
Here are some pics… enjoy.

Parting shot.
Phuong (Blackwater), I had my Superman combo all ready to go today. You’re lucky that there were no significant boils out there. Just a matter of time buddy, you’re going down… again! :Twisted:
