talk about san jose bass meeting.. i will be out there tomorrow in the morning as well. im the asian guy. if you see me just say JC!! and well meet and greet

Caught 2 on drop shot...1.9lbs....and 2.0lbs...nothing on Jigs

spend 1 hour at oakridge pond, saw 2 guys fishing, I was using spinnerbait and just a roboworm.

caught nothing.

Not using the right stuff bro!

dont listen to andrew....hahaha jk... but ya i think a spinnerbait would be good if it was a little cloudy and windy... then those would be perfect conditions.... other than that drop shots and jigs should produce some good numbers
hope that helps,

yeah i havent had anyluck here with spinners ..... just on the east side...
Over here jigs/ worms/ cranks baits have worked for us and a top water lur emy bro uses that pops on top of the water. Its wierd (to me atleast) but ive seen him catch several on it...

well hooked up on my third cast using a texas rigged worm. Fish was maybe 2lbs and I lost it on the 2nd jump. Other than that nothing else for the 2 hours we were out there. I did get to see one of those damn birds catch a 2-3lbs bass and swollow it whole in about 3 sec!

hahaha ya you will get him next time... but the oakridge ponds can somtimes be a hit and miss... when you do go you only get about 1 or 2 the most i ever caught outta there was three in one day... but i dont know bout you guys...

I went out yesterday. I caught one about 2.5 to 3lbs on a split shot roboworm. Its seems like the slower you fish the more likely you'll get a bit.

I Think Im going to head out today in an hr our two and give it a shot.

i've used the drop shot rig the last few times and hit fish every time....

The bites only came when i stopped moving the bait.

I drag the weight...come to a stop......but holding the line tight never giving it slack.....wait a little bit ...15 20 seconds....then twitch it twice.....then drag again..and repeat.....both bites came on the pausing period for me......so give that a shot if you drop shot at all.....the drag is short...so everything in that process needs to be done slow...


good luck..i might see you there if i don't go to almaden lake....

Went today areound 5 tried my spinners like usually, nothing then jig for a bit , nothing then i put on the crank bait and caught a nice one by the pilars for 85 only caught the one but it was a fatty.... I need to get me a digital scale...

what kind of crankbait and what color? and how fast were you working it?

what color did you use? thats a nice one i say 2 1/2 3 pounder. good shoot man!

I was using this same lure as in this picture from a few weeks ago...

old fish same lure..


nice slow retrieve, mixed with the two tug and pause technique... It has a rattle and floats up when not being reeled in., dives deep when reeling. It was fat. At least 3lbs IMO but i need to get a scale.. He was way fatter next to my foot.. made my foot look small.. pics yesterday were taken from my iphone as i left my camera in my car in Sacramento at the shop..
