It's Crappie Time!!!

According to the 2017-2018 California Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations:
1.77. Sunfish.
Includes bluegill, green sunfish, redear sunfish,
pumpkinseed, warmouth, and Sacramento perch.

5.82. Sunfish and Crappie.
(a) Open season: All year, except for closures
listed under district or special regulations.
(b) Limit: Combined bag limit of twenty-five
sunfish and crappie
of all species, except in:
(1) Barrett and Upper Otay Lakes (San Diego
County): zero bag limit for all species.
(c) Size Limit: No size limit, except at Hodges
and El Capitan Lakes (San Diego County),
where the crappie minimum size limit is 10
inches, total length.


For a change of pace, The Ultimate Fisherman went fishing for crappie on Friday.  Yes, Friday, at the peak of the salmon fishing season!

J.U. is blessed to have many fishing brothers.  It's one of those times to take a break from more than 30 salmon fishing trips so far this season!!!  Boy, was he rewarded.  He got to land the first three fish of the day.  And by the end of the day, the three brothers limited out with a total of 75 fish!!!  It's just crappie, but this is the very first time that J.U. limited out on crappie :-)

J.U. really needed the Grandmaster and PRO because this appears to be excellent striper country and this is Grandmaster's stomping ground!  With all those bait fish, just imaging the possibility of landing a big striper!  Unfortunately, J.U. was not paying attention to locations and techniques while fishing with the Grandmaster, so a great opportunity was missed in landing a big striped bass :-(

Introducing: Excitable Fisherman!


Another worthy sized fish.


The Captain was killing it!

Sweet!




It's a good fishing day.

Here is the summary video of the day:



May God bless your day!
