Local Largemouth Bass - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

outlawangler · 04-21-2016, 06:34 AM

Seems that I routinely end up fishing Murray due to my work schedule and which lake is "open". Murray is open every day, so that works best when I am down from LA late in the week. There is a launch fee at Murray...$2.00 and a $8.00 fee to fish. So for 10 bones you are on the water. Not sure what the traffic is on the lake during the weekend as I have not been on the lake during a weekend in a few years.

The lake is on and off as far as the bite goes. I have fished on a Friday and caught no fish, only to fish it the following Monday and land multiple fish to include a double digit monster (no changes in weather, no pressure drop, same time of day, same bait, same location, etc..). This has happened twice in as many years...same 4 day weekend each year as well! In my opinion, the fish are more sensitive to pressure than most San Diego lakes, which is saying something...

And yes...the picture to the left, Lake Murray!

Murray, Miramar, Hodges and El cap are all good destinations for LMB.

What is the latest on San V, Opening??? loved fishing the skiff there, never kayak fished it 8 years with no fishing pressure, should be really good.

El cap, Barrett, and San Vicente when it opens.

Some rumors about October, but nothing hard core yet.
