    Default Freezing Temps bring out the Big boys

    Freezing temperatures have been common throught Southern California and today at Irvine Lake was no diffrent. A low of 28 greeted anglers today with the high reaching into the mid 40's but even the frigid cold could not stop the stellar trout bite that has been on tap.

    Limits or close to where quite common with Garlic Powerbait, Chrt Gulp Dough, Rainbow Gulp Dough and nightcrawlers all accounting for there fair share of bait fish. While lure tossers had better luck with mini jigs, drop shot and Thomas Bouyants.

    However, it was another massive fish that stole the show. Glenn "NY4Reels" bested this mammoth of a Rainbow Trout while fishing the Trout Island area with Rainbow Power Bait. The fish was officially weighed in on the lakes scales and it read out 14.2! Congratulations once again Glenn!


    Another DD from the Vine! I do not know how many that makes but I think it might be into the double digits. Impressive action to say the least. Hope to see everyone again really soon.

    Hi Jimmy. Thanks for posting the picture of me and the fish. I'm not sure who it was that weighed my fish and took my picture. Was that you?? Thank you!
    I actually caught the fish on 1/2 of an inflated crawler. No worries though.

    Thanks for the kind words fellas! TM65 I spoke with a couple of people. Not sure if it was you though. Say hi next time!

    Kevin, I have no idea what you mean?? It's been several yrs since I posted here on this site. Did I miss something........??

    That was actually what I was referring to. No worries.
    It's a little joke cause at SARL everything is caught on Nitro and
    at the Vine everything is caught on Berkley.
