How come only a handful of posters actually put up a report on Castaic?

I was there today and at minimum 100 people fishing. I would say 30 recognized me or Troutonly or DK.

What's the deal? We all know there is enough stripers for all and as many boats at the bouy line there is plenty of room? Spread the love man, don't be such a striper Grinch.

BTW limits for us

Had they show a level of cooperation and not secrecy those in the know would reciprocate?

Maybe a lot of other fisherman are lurkers on here only? By the way, great job on getting your limits out there.

Mike, It was nice to finally meet you in person, and to see your boat that you worked so hard to fix up, it looks great. Bob and I had to same results that you did today, I am sure he will post up the pics, nothing big, but pretty much non stop action once we left the flotilla at the buoy line zone.......................Dave

Dammit, 100 out there today, it's probably gonna be real zoo on Sunday. Got no choice, but to battle the weekend crowd but Sugar Bear's willing to hit the road at 3:30am and try and get in front of some of the crowd. Skunk or no skunk I'll be posting.

My mind tells me to troll early and bait and wait later, but it sounds like B&W at the buoy line is where to go to get some fish in the ice chest. Recommendations? Gotta ask cause I've only trolled at Castaic, can you tie onto the buoy line or do you have to drop anchor?

On a side note, on my way home from work, seen the Duct Killer DK towing his boat through Bako heading north on 99. Small world some days.

It was cool to "see you again"


Small world it is. We played Golf against eachother back in the early to mid 90's. I remember seeing you walking around the clubhouse with Aoki.

Seeing you with that double hookup on Bob's boat, my boys thought you guys were rockstars.. Then I had to remind them that their dad is a Bako boy.


Keep in touch, maybe golf, or fish someday

I do have a big ego, but what good fisherman DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!! I'll give you the short short version. The reason why more people don't write fish reports or make videos is because their AFRAID TOO!!!!!!!!! What are they afraid of?????? Haters and paranoids!!!!!!!! I'll give you a recent example of one of the Bako boys fish reports. 3 people questioned the credability of the OP of where he caught his fish. The OP threw down on one of those clowns so fast, it reminded me of the movie Tombstone. Most people won't do that!!!!! Instead they give that famous line "THIS IS WHY I WON'T POST ANY MORE FISH REPORTS ON FNN'. Try posting a video on FNN and see the reaction. If your one of the Reel Brother your ok but anyone else your screwed. There was a video posted last week on Bass fishing and then taken down at the request of an FNN reader. The list goes on and on. See where I'm coming from.

Oh yea, now I remember. :) Those were two beautiful fish. For the record, my report for that day was one dink that I threw overboard to make room for 10 like yours. Sometimes plans do go the way you want them to go but it was still a good day.

First, I really didn't mean for a real explanation as I do know the tale and understood your derogatory remark against me.

Quite ironic isn't it you and pcabuser calingl me the emperor with see thru robe for slammin posters whilst slamming me?

Talk about hypocrit?

Hypocrit example two!

Both of you check my report on the Castaic page for info. Last I remember is zero report from either of you.

Proving once again my point. I am venturing a guess that by your guys reaction one if not both of you were one of the 30 or so staring at us and forming a group behind the boat?

Heck I wouldn't be surprised if pcabuser was not the one weaseling in on our bait spot while we were anchoring and then gripe because my cast was too close to his boat? Sheesh was quite a sight. 100 feet between bob s boat and mine and did we say a word to him even when we were there first? Nope! But he sure did mention if our cast was too close

Nice fresh Ron.

I tried to latch on to one of those on the bait but text from Dk with 20 in an hour an half was too much of a temptation.

I have concluded the bait bite does not exceed the troll fun, despite the chance of a nice fish or two

They were being bait snobs and even if you had what they wanted they weren't going far to get it.

You once said, "you talk like your from another planet". I guess I just proved you were right all along. To answer your question about being at Castaic, the answer was no. I do have a funny story related to your experience at Castaic. We fished the Irvine lake catfish opener this year and next too us was a huge FNN poster in the next boat. The first hour was uneventful as our little friend was taking a nap. Once he got up and started fishing, boy he was a cranky old man. He was yelling at everyone about crossing his line. I admit it was a zoo, but hey everyone was just trying to get a piece of the action. So I feel for you, when you have to fish next to a bunch of grumpy old men.

Why

I fish two times a week. I have fished next to some of you and had great conversations but I never tell that I am a fnn member because why? I don't post. Why? WellI have been lurking since 2006 and I read the new posts just about everyday . I see what happens if you spell a word wrong or your grammar is bad (both of mine are very bad) or the pic is blurry or the poor guy who keeps a bass or did not release it just the right way.

I agree with etucker1959, I'm intimidated. It's a whole lot easer to just read and not post. I admire guys like hardcore. He posts what he caught, how he caught it, how deep, what set up, where and when and most of the time shows his bait on video. What's funny about his post you never hear him say oh my spot is full of people now or I should have never posted my spot. People learn from this type of person. Thank you Cory I have learned a lot from watching your videos.

I don't want to come on here and say so and so parked his float tube 20 feet in front me. I don't want to talk about the guy that posted about taking his son out in a rental boat, but did not realize he cut both my lines while I was trolling. Then there's the guy that parked his boat next to mine and we talked all day and caught nothing but dinks. He went home and posted that he had limit of 5 and 10 pounders. Really!!

In the end, it's more important to hear what's happening than if someone's spelling or grammar is correct or if their video is blurry. I personally don't give a rat's *****, I just want to improve my fishing.

I'm drama free and that's the way it's gonna stay!

You are the guy that should be posting. Your fishing every week that's the kind of reports this site needs. Who gives a crap what the haters think or say just do your thing. If we all took that approach there would be no post for you to read and know what's going on out at the lake. I would love to read a report from you on your next trip

But when the boat is finished the maiden voyage will be at castaic and I will be sure to post. Can't wait she is almost ready for the water and some striper slaying. Anyone got any trolling tips as I am new it.

Tip #1. Book a trip with bob Troutonly. Learn from the best.

As Bobs buds we would be undermining him. Just not what buds do. Hope you understand?

Besides which. You would save the money in fuel anyway by him showing you and shortening the learning curve

Why

I fish two times a week. I have fished next to some of you and had great conversations but I never tell that I am a fnn member because why? I don't post. Why? WellI have been lurking since 2006 and I read the new posts just about everyday . I see what happens if you spell a word wrong or your grammar is bad (both of mine are very bad) or the pic is blurry or the poor guy who keeps a bass or did not release it just the right way.

I agree with etucker1959, I'm intimidated. It's a whole lot easer to just read and not post. I admire guys like hardcore. He posts what he caught, how he caught it, how deep, what set up, where and when and most of the time shows his bait on video. What's funny about his post you never hear him say oh my spot is full of people now or I should have never posted my spot. People learn from this type of person. Thank you Cory I have learned a lot from watching your videos.

I don't want to come on here and say so and so parked his float tube 20 feet in front me. I don't want to talk about the guy that posted about taking his son out in a rental boat, but did not realize he cut both my lines while I was trolling. Then there's the guy that parked his boat next to mine and we talked all day and caught nothing but dinks. He went home and posted that he had limit of 5 and 10 pounders. Really!!

In the end, it's more important to hear what's happening than if someone's spelling or grammar is correct or if their video is blurry. I personally don't give a rat's *****, I just want to improve my fishing.

I'm drama free and that's the way it's gonna stay!

Yes you are the guy who should be posting.

Nobody is worse at gramer than I. Anyone on this site who calls the gramer police is a tool and should be thought of that way.

I think you don't understand or are confused at the banter. Say Hi, shake a hand. Its what we do and feels good to make a good friend.


For instance loom at catchingsomefish. We met Thurs morn in line at Bobs boat, Bob introduced us, we shook hands. 5 mins later he came to my boat and we talked some more. Come to find out we played golf together in a home and home tournament.

I now remember seeing him with the opposing pro. All this from the mid 90's. Kinda cool if you ask me

All my fishing buds are met from FNN.

Harlan
Trailblazer
Team pontoon
Dk
Andrew
MikesOcean
AA
Hardcor
TroutOnly
Hittson...

List goes on.

Just say hi, and post up


BTW! Posting up a dead bass gives you instant 1000 credits with the striper killers

Regarding g the drinks magically turning into 5 lbers? Well we fish, therefor.........

There are more ways than posting a report to spread info. on a lake. You won't see many, if any, reports from me, been there done that and didn't much like the outcome. But that's just me and I love reading all these reports but I don't lurk for information I lurk to enjoy the reading of the reports cause I'm gonna do my thing after all is said in done.

I thank TO, Cutbait, TB, MasterBaiter1 and of course the new guy on the block Hardcor and all the striper kings for their generosity and sharing of reports but really the reports are missing so much information about the techniques used, water conditions, weather, moon phase (if you believe in that crap), water flow if aquaduct fishing or playing at the inlets and bait activity that they really just become a glimpse of what is actually going on. All you lurkers need to get off your butts and fish to really figure it out, the striper kings aren't going to hold your "pole" for you.

I hope that I have proved though that you don't have to post reports to actually contribute to this website.

It really takes time on the water and all of those that I mentioned are perfect examples of that. Fish more then you will learn more, so simple even a lib could figure it out!

I and probably most of the others "libs" here do just fine fishing. And we probably don't interfere with other fisherman. We don't need to. We can figure it out because we are open minded intelligent people. If we aren't catching fish, we feel no need to "blame" anyone. Some days, the fish are simply not biting. We however enjoy just being able to fish. There is joy in understanding nature and luxuriating in it. Catching fish is a bonus. I realize I'm speaking for others. Some might not fit my description exactly. However, I've known enough "libs" to characterize them in this manner...

Unfortunately I am just a poor boy and can't afford to pay $200.00 to go out and fish for half a day. A trip to the lake will cost me around fifty bucks.

Sorry..... But this poor boy crap ain't gonna fly here. It's obvious by these reports that the majority here are not shore fishermen that are posting. Bob runs a guide service to teach people how to troll and catch fish here. So if you don't have a boat then none of the knowledge used to limit on stripers here on this board will help you. And if you do have a boat my ***** you can't afford it. Maybe you don't want to spend the $ which is a different story. If you do have a boat we all know its not cheap to run and maintain a boat. Even if it is a smaller boat. And why should people here who know Bob, respect him, and call him a friend, throw him under the bus and just tell you exactly what to do? We have ALL spent countless dollars and time on the water that maybe we can't afford to hire him or get involved with the board and built friendships here to learn with this group or on our own. I know fishing can be difficult and frustrating at times when it seems the fish are not cooperating. But really it's learning all the factors on your own that will help you on your own. Hiring a professional like Bob will help get you a great basic understanding to start catching fish. I will guarantee you something that what was working for bob last year may not be working for him this year. So he has to adapt and make changes. 1 month ago I went out and witnessed good friends of mine trolling in front of me and they were hammering the fish and I couldn't buy a bite. I recognized I had to make changes and figure out what these fish wanted. Don't expect people here to do your setups when your not even involved or show up to any events. Were you at striperfest? I guarantee if you were you would have made some friends and gained some knowledge. ALL my fishing buddies were made from fnn.

Guess I coulda reported that I saw Fishinone riding and slayin on someone else's boat:Wink:

Haven't had the time or money to see how much damage I may have caused to my motor or get it fixed but I will be posting whenever I get back out on the water.

I've gained knowledge from the responses to my few reports in the past... More than I've learned from just lurking. That's my motivation to post reports.

Dude you need to calm down. I didn't ask how to fish I just asked for a few trolling tips that was all. I didn't ask you to throw Bob under the bus. And No I was not at striper fest I wanted to go but didn't have a boat. I got one now and am just trying to participate. You don't need to be such an *****. I know what worked yesterday may not work today. I understand Bob is your friend and he runs a business. I understand you need to put time in to learn.

He always goes out of his ways to a bunch of guys here for good tips and offerings. So I apoligize if I came off angry. On my end it was just out of loyalty.. No need for me or anyone here to protect one fellow angler here while bashing another. Again I'm sorry if I came hostile. Wasnt my intent!

Turned off while trolling... At first I thought I just needed to switch gas tanks but while I was reeling in my lines I saw that the motor overheated. Is smoked a little. I let it cool down and then tried to crank it. Sounded like it wanted to start but I noticed there was no water circulating so I decided not to push it. Don't know enough so I decided to call for a tow rather than do further damage.

Didn't smoke enough that other boats around woulda noticed and wondered what I was cooking... But it was enough that the wind blew it in our face and it was bothersome.

The old man I bought the boat from used to do all the work and service on the boat/motor himself. Kept it in great shape. He'd probably wanna kick my *** if he knew I mistreated his motor!

My reports are pretty thorough most of the time. A big amen on doing your own thing. Words I live by. The reward is much greater when you do it your way instead of following the masses.

Too funny and so true. I love the fisherman excuses at the end of a day. That's why I don't pay particular attention to any of that and just go fish to go fish whenever I can and let the chips fall where they may.
