Still going..

Post by CorsoEnthusiast »

The V is still going! Did a short session on 8/13 from open till about 9:30. Ended up with 9 total. Mostly smaller fish but managed to find two fish over 3lbs. As has been the trend lately for me there, shallow cover was the key.

San V is one of the few consistent lakes this year, good job getting on them!

Awesome! Really nice catches! I'd like to float tube San V again. It's been years!

Just do it Dannicus. The great thing about San V is there are plenty of Bass close to the Launch Ramp. Easily accessible, no long kick.

No joke! There were literally hundreds of bass, little fry to 1-2lb clones, just hanging out at the bottom of the ramp Sunday when my buddy and I trailered the boat.

Thanks guys, I will definitely give it a go. Do they still have a shuttle to ferry you down to the water from where you park the car. Only asking because my old knees really need to know :)

I saw a golf cart shuttling last week. Many more walks up that ramp and I might catch one lol.

Have you ever noticed that the shuttle is always at the opposite end of the ramp when you need it? It seems like in 50+ years of fishing San V, I would of timed the shuttle right at least once....

The gents in the tackle store will gladly give you a ride down, might have to wait for them to finish a sale. Going up, bum a ride with someone trailering back up.

Well, I don’t fish San V that often, especially in the last few years, but I’ve never got a ride up that long ramp. I’m pretty outgoing but it’s hard for me to go up to somebody’s truck and ask him if I could have a ride up the hill. If I am still fishing and have a cane or a walker, I’m not gonna be so meek…. Ha ha :-)

I'm with you VinnyBass, I actually drag my kayak all the up and all the way down that ramp, rather than ask. :)

Well, I know where he’s coming from as a few months ago my knee went out. Was kneeling on the ground and painting this painting for about five hours, up and down. Needed a cane the first month, the pain was something else. Answered prayer is that it’s perfectly fine today, plus I sold the painting while it was still wet! I fished from sunrise to sunset a couple weeks ago, so knee is back to normal, thank you Lord.
