Hey Vince , You gatta get up there soon as the fish are ready to move west , I live in Yucaipa so the 38 is the only way for me . Went to BBL again today and the early top water bite is way good but mine came at 4 colors lead pulling a firetiger rap.

Steve I know.. I'm just a lazy fisherman in SW riverside conserving gas in my gas guzzler chevy, going to the nearest body of water DV or Skinner! I'm so lazy I wont even drive up to Lake Hemet where its WIDE OPEN for Bow's right now.

When I can back to the marina I talked to a guy who caught some crappies in 10 ft. of water from his boat but didnt ask where thou . The cats bite good from stanfield I hear in the summer .
