Free Sonar Lessons.... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I guess I should include some report/info so this post can stay in reports.

Sunday San V was not that crowded. 65 degrees on the surface and about 15' viability in the water. I saw lots of bass in the trees and under shallow cover. I fished swim baits and senkos on drop shot. Never got a single bite. Guys who were fishing with shiners were killing it, as always. Even though I suck at bass fishing, I haven't yet stooped low enough to use live bait on largemouth. Maybe I'll get there after a couple more skunks haha.

My son turns 25 this year. I have a photo of him in a rental boat at San V hoisting up a big bluegill 20 years ago.

I have never fished fin bait for em, but crawdads are fun and plenty to be had in the creeks around SD. I remember another rental boat day at Miramar, I must have hooked and handed a dozen LMB to my son who thought he caught em all
