Fall Bass Fishing in Riverside

Sometimes, your photo captures the perfect moment. This is one of them.

Success. Huddleston Shad lure was the ticket. 

Fishing the Santa Ana River for Bass and Sunfish

Found this little channel on the Santa Ana by accident. It's pretty easy to figure out where it is, but I'm warning any would-be-explorers: this spot is nasty with poison oak. Somehow, I managed to get it around my eye, in addition to arms, legs, and neck. Definitely not an experience I plan on repeating! Although, I wonder how many other tiny channels like this one exist, perhaps even with larger fish?
