#15618, "Is Santa Margarita picking up at all?"


          

Hey guys. I'm headed to Santa Margarita tomorrow morning, and I am curious whether its starting to pick up at all out there? Last time I was there (a few weeks ago), I caught a lot of bass, but they were all really small. Anyone been out there recently? I assume there will be a bit of swimbait action soon, now that they have started stocking trout.

Last thing I heard about Santa Margarita was that it was slow. Hope you do good out there, post a report on your outing. I will be on Lopez all day on Sunday...Report to follow...

Well, I caught quite a few fish at Margarita yesterday, but my best all day was about a pound and a half. I just couldn't find the good fish. Just about everything I tried worked (topwater in the morning, dropshotting and deep cranks in the afternoon, mostly), but I just couldn't find any size...

Sounds like the same thing at Lopez...the lakes have a bunch of bass this size...just wait til spring....By the way, keep an eye out on the Kickboat/Floattube forum below...we will be starting a Central coast region of BasnTubes in 2006. Kayaks are welcome to join in the fun....

Yeah its seems to be quatity over quality but im not complaining,they will grow up eventually and its great to see alot of activity in the lakes.San Antonios busting them on the shad baits right now ,may want to fish there for some sizable fish.
tight lines, Brian

Well, I'm heading out to lopez today. Maybe this weather we're having will make some of the bigger fish more active?
