Loaded my kayak up and hit Lake Miramar on Monday. It was overcast, the water was high and caught my first bass on top which was a nice start.

Most of the bass were topwater with 15 or so coming as a combination of cranks, jerks and even a few worms. It was awesome to f...

My right hand has carpal tunnel and it's been painful casting and stripping line for extended periods of time. I borrowed a technique used by stillwater guys, using a floating line, long mono leader, and break-away strike indicator. The idea was to adjust the leader length below the indicator to fis...
