BIG Summer Time Bass Biting

The Delta always produces BIG bites in early February, but the conditions can be tough. If you are in search of a big bite fishing early Spring is usually the best time of year. This time of year is not a numbers game, but a quality trip. The bites are usually limited but then you do get them to bite it is usually a big female who is in her prespawn pattern. Book a trip if this interests you... if you want numbers and quality then mid March the Delta should fire off and be lights out.

We’ve been enjoying the fall bite with topwater dominating the action, but mixing in good quality with the dropshot (reds and pinks best bite). The frog bite is still happening when we find good weeds, but right now we have to do frog specific trips since it required a longer run to get to the better frog water. Book a trip. Its super fun right now.

Fall on the Delta is my favorite time to fish. Went out today to prefish for a trip coming up and wanted to see if the fall transition bite had started. Good news for clients, the bite is here and the slime weeds that fill these flats is almost all gone. We will fish topwater in current cuts that lead to flats and depending on which direction the tide is flowing it positions the fish in a way that makes it predictable for bites. With clients we will move through the areas quickly with big topwater baits and then turn around and slow down and pick apart the same areas with slower topwater finesse type baits and some senkos if the water is high enough. It is super fun right now. Book a trip!
