Perris 5/22

[ancam93]

Waded the shallow water to the right of the Bernasconi Beach launch ramp for a few hours on Wednesday. Was targeting bluegill/redear and could see plenty of fish among the brush. Ended up with a few redear and a fat bluegill on mealworms about 18in under a clear bobber. While I was reeling in a small redear a nice largemouth appeared from behind a sunken tree to investigate. I switched over to my trusty watermelon senko and made a cast towards the tree. First cast produced my first Perris bass, a nice 3-pounder! Overall a very fun day and definitely worth the hour drive.

Nice man! The water is warm to go in without waders, but watch out going thru the brush! There's some kid of tiny bug that bit the crap out of me last year and I itched for a couple of weeks!

[ancam93]

Definitely little spiders, there were webs everywhere! I have a few bites on me, but not gonna stop me from going again!

mosquitos!

[fishmounter]

No.. what bit me were not mosquitos. They don't bite thru thick clothing. Whatever bit me were tiny yet packed a lasting punch! Possibly even something in the water..

Yeah Ed, that's what my wife said. And like Bassmaster Bob said, you don't get the itch until later on and it's really a bad itch! ancam93- sorry to jack your thread... your fishing there at LP was pretty darn good and you caught some good ones. Thanks for the report and nice pics buddy.

Hey Triton,

Nice to meet you too. That bass was my only bite, but I saw plenty of fish. 10 sounds like a pretty good day to me!
