Awesome video bro nice big pigs good job see you this spring stay fishy Redmond OREGON 👍😁
Thanks bro I’ll definitely look into it
What knot do you use from the braid to leader?
I use a Albright knot 🪢
Respect to you for fishing there 🫡 I dislike those lakes or any south cali lakes because it gets super crowded and it’s pricey and sometimes with people not demonstrating angler etiquette it’s not worth it. Rather fly fish north Cali or Steelhead in Washington. But again respect to you fellow angler for putting that work ✊🏼 😅
Thank you but I definitely feel you but it fills in the gaps between going to Pyramid lake and being able to fish a few times a week .
@@GoldenStateFishing that’s crazy you drive all the way up here. But it’s definitely worth it 👌
@@KimchiJerrywhere do you live ?
@@GoldenStateFishing Reno area !
@@KimchiJerry yep we drive up there lots I’ll actually be back at the mid beginning of January. Going to leave my travel trailer this time
Are u using braid to leader..? For line set up
Yes I use braid and a 8ft fluorocarbon leader
While wading gets you a few extra feet, it messes with no waders and also keeps the fish out deeper for non waders. This time of year with colder water especially shouldn't be done IMO 8 foot rods. light line, bigger tube jigs and still wading?
Definitely doesn’t mess with no waders other friends next to me catching them just fine . On this specific spot there is shallow area that goes out far and waders help lots the fish sit out farther . The waders get me an extra 20ft and makes a huge difference. Definitely don’t want to go bigger on tackle super finesse is the way to go.
So who provides these monsters to you guy's? Fish game or private plant? Ty
Its private stocks only lake
@GoldenStateFishing Ty
dang so many float tubers
Yeah it was kind of ridiculous
I remember pelicans last year was bad!
I’ve kind of drifted away from using the power ball worms and gone into minnows and mini jigs mostly. I feel like the powers are the least effective from the minnows and spartans
Yes , I don’t anything beats the Spartans but the devil tails are great too .
can u still catch stuff in the middle of the week? i feel like most of the fish are caught on fridays and saturdays
Oh yes definitely lots of people do good Monday-Wednesday
@@GoldenStateFishing oh dam i might give it a try then do u know if they allow kayaks with fish finders?
@@Rhomeozon no kayaks only float tubes
Wasting time 😂😂😂. Staying overnight and then next day catching nothing . I took 2 days off and spent over $150.00. No more fishing at Santa Ana River lake . Waiting for summer, going down San Diego and taking 2 days off , fishing yellow tails . It’s better than River lake 😂😂😂😂. Good luck fishermen 💥💥💥💥👍👍👍👍. Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Well that sucks . I always do pretty well there but don’t go often I spend most of my time heading up to Pyramid NV now 🎣
Think I fished there way back in the 80s? Dont remember the lake being that large though?
I think they made it a lot bigger in the 2000s
Is that the Vanquish reel?
Yes I have a few vanquish 1000 and a few Stella’s
That doesn't look fun to me at least, I'm sticking with the Utah mountains 😂
Oh it definitely isn’t that fun I would much rather be out in Utah or on one of my adventures somewhere else but it fills in the gaps tell then .
Yes go some were else do is extremely pack.
Let us know how fishing is the next few months in the Utah mountains. lol Get real guy. You go where you can go......BTW many of the fish you catch in the Utah lakes were/are planted...
Last time I went it was a nightmare how pack it was, it made extremely difficult to catch anything.
The key is to get there ridiculously early and get a good spot or yes it can be crazy . Going during the middle of the week is a good time also .
@@GoldenStateFishing yeah middle of the week is best, and yes it sure is very fun.
You mentioned change different colors on bait how about you length between your minnows is Friday a good day to go or is it pqcked😢
@@bobbydeleon8303 good point that’s good to change also . Yes Friday is packed I recommend getting there stupid early or I stay sometimes in overnight
@@GoldenStateFishing They open at 6am I believe not sure how the overnight works...
You guys going to Diamond valley on Wednesday
No way I don’t do that place or all those crazy people I’ll pass
@@GoldenStateFishing I get it long as I Catch fish I’m happy tho 😂
Great video, I did pretty good with the GFS minnows over in the small lake on that same day.
Tight lines 👉🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣👍
@@GoldenStateFishingwhat happens at diamond valley that's crazy? I fish there for bass many years ago but I've never been for trout. Is it just a ton of people or something?
@@funkehouse They are stocking a lot of rainbow trout and lightning trout. Years ago Diamond as a great trophy trout fishery. Used to be huge schools of large trout cruising the lake. Lots of very large holdover trout caught...Then the stripers wiped them out. Now a few days after the stocking the fish are mostly gone...many are snagged by scum bag "fishermen"
