Spotted Bass fishing in Winter on Lake Oroville

Friday Jan 15, 2010 My buddy Ron Howe from RB Bassfishing gave me call and asked if I was interested in fishing on Saturday? Sure! Where? It’s January. He had several upcoming tournaments on Oroville and wanted to spend the next couple of weekends preparing for them. So off we went at O’dark thirty. When [...]

Summer Frog Fishing

Summer and Fall can be an awesome time for top water and especially Frogs! I’ve always loved fishing top water and I don’t think there is anything  more exciting while fishing than when you see a fish explode on your bait. I’ve had some violent blow ups when Striped Bass fishing but that’s a whole [...]

Awesome Day Bass Fishing on the California Delta!

Last Friday I hooked up with Mark Lassagne, Professional Tournament Angler/Guide & Publisher/Editor of Bass Anglers Guide Magazine for a day of fishing on the California Delta. This was probably one of my best days Bass fishing in a LONG time. What an awesome day! Earlier that week while talking with Mark and planning the [...]

Folsom Lake Fishing with the kids

I am fortunate that my wife works two days a week (6AM-12noon) and during the summer I get to spend that time with my children. Sometimes we just hang out at home, go catch the free summer movies, etc. But Tuesday we headed out to Folsom Lake. I noticed immediately upon arrival the level was [...]

Folsom Lake Bass Fishing – Where are they and what are they eating?

I probably fish Folsom Lake at least 2-3 times a week, 2 of those trips will usually be from shore. I’ll just say, fishing has been pretty tough lately.  I have also been fishing our Bass club tournaments. With both of these in mind, I try to approach each trip with the intention of figuring [...]

Went up to Jenkinson Lake in the Sly Park Recreation Area for an evening of fishing with John from our Bass club, El Dorado Bass. We fished at several spots and John seemed to be doing a bit better than me catching fish. But I eventually started catching a few. Nothing huge but we caught [...]

My little piece of paradise

When I moved up here to Northern California I was fortunate that some of the best schools and some great neighborhoods were right next to a big lake!.. This close proximity allows me to make a quick trips down to Folsom Lake for a few hours of fishing after work and weekends without having to [...]

Just one more cast!

Usually Sundays are Family days, usually being the key word… Ya know a day of rest, stay home, not really doing too much etc,. Especially it being a little overcast. When we got home from church, I thought I would be content doing just that, nothing! Catch up on my recorded fishing shows, etc. But [...]

March Bass fishing Folsom Lake with the boys

With the water level at Folsom Lake finally starting to stabilize and the fishing starting to pick up a bit, I thought my boys and I would venture out to the lake on Saturday after-noon,.. It’s only about a 1/2 mile/2min from our house. We arrived at Browns Ravine and decided we would fish an [...]

March Bass fishing after work Folsom Lake

Photo by Leon Turnbull This month I have been fishing Folsom Lake in the afternoons for a couple hours 2-3 times a week. With water level constantly on the rise the first part of the month, my catch numbers have been pretty low, one or two, nothing consistent or of any size, 12-13″ range. I [...]
