Balboa Lake: quick fix

[troutdog]

Lil TD and I got to the lake less than an hour before closing on the way to my folks house and found a wide open bite on the tilapia. Best bet for us was to fish a piece of crawler on the bottom, all the dinks were coming under the bobber so we ditched that rig quickly in hopes of the larger models....

My size 10 flip-flop for scale....one of many caught and released

This place always seems to gets a bad rap because of the stinky water, but it sure does the trick for a quick fishing fix when time is short and hey the sunset shots aren't too bad either! :Wink:

So, TD, what bait would you recommend for the plecostomi, algae maybe? I have seen those monsters. They look like something from a scfi movie.
