    Default New SFV Fisherman

    Well as the title suggests I'm from the San Fernando Valley, Pacoima to be exact. I joined this forum to learn and get more into fishing. Such as good places to fish around the area, what fish each area generally has, and around which months I should go. What kind of bait and lines to use. I really don't know much. Any advice and suggestions is always welcomed. Thanks!

    Thanks for the advice, and see I'm such a noobie that you lost me at the whole carolina rig part lol and yeah I went to azusa with a friend of mine to go fishing for some carp last friday night. I believe it was by the San Gabriel Dam? not sure exactly but right in Angeles National Forest. My friend and his dad each caught one, i got nothing -_-

    A carolina rig is just a way to tie your bait onto your line that allows you to fish a certain way. Mainly used to fish for bass
