best Diamond Valley Lake guide?

[Catlady]

Hi all,
I am looking to buy a gift certificate for my step father for a guided Diamond Valley Lake session. We have had very limited success using wacky senkos and I would really like my step father to learn a little and enjoy a successful day of fishing. Any recommendations on the best guide for Diamond Valley? Mainly looking to fish bass but open to anything.
Thank you for any guidance

Art Hill would be my pick. Art might also suggest a different lake to allow your stepfather to experience all of the different techniques of Bass fishing and put him on fish at the same time.

Lol, hey, look who's a lurkn'...

Art I know this isn't a Vail thread but what's happening with the future of Vail? Last I heard there was uncertainty in whether there will be access to the fishery. Anything been settled yet?

I reccommend Pete as well. He is an awesome guide and very friendly.

Yeah I am a lurker, it's how I learn to fish. I am alive and well, just flying low under the radar. I stay out of trouble that way.

Vail Lake is very much alive and well, and now the property of Rancho California Water District. My membership is good until next September, and after that I am not to sure what is going to happen. I am betting the lake will open to the public in the future. The water level is very low, but still able to launch.

If this winter is anything like last winter, then Vail Lake will go off big time. Last winter the bass bite was insane. When other lakes were slow, we were crushing the fish at Vail Lake. Not many members left now, and the numbers are falling off each month. Not much trouble finding spots to fish. Some days I am the only boat on the lake.

Geez, you got your own pig trough there Art. Fall, winter, spring or summer they gotta eat right? I've got mixed feelings about the lake going public. On one hand, I'd hate to lose a good Bass fishery in so cal. On the other, I'd hate to see what would become of it if it's opened up to all. I got my arse handed to me the one time I did get to fish it and I've got to get back there again sometime for redemption, lol.

Good to hear your alive and well Art, hope to see you there soon...
