    Hey I know for a fact there are some deep mats down south out by Antioch. Punch those mats with that yamamoto flipping bait you use green pumpkin with a 1.5oz double pegged weight. Low tide those mats sit in about 12 to 15 feet of water. Gotta go in hi tide tho or the current will be bad.

    Totally feeling you. I always have to start with top water. Sometimes I'm guilty of holding that top water rig in my hand longer than I should. Gotta take your lead and switch what I throw sooner than I think I should. I feel like that rotation of baits will put me on fish more efficiently. Thanks for posting!!

    Love how you always seem to capture a little nature in your vids.Otter mid crunch on some crayfish was cool.Definitely had shad fry , good bait for me when I see that happening is a little dipper from reaction innovations on a small belly weighted weedless hook.30 lb braid,toss in the tulies or run thru grass and doesn't get hung .

    Yes coffee time with Gregg! 😊 It was weird to see rice flies on the Delta. They're usually all over Clearlake in the summer. Guess they decided to widen their attack area 😂 So many TINY bass! Since you brought your net you should do ok 👍 Have you considered using that new plastic the Yamamoto Tanuki? I keep hearing about it and was curious if you added them to your arsenal. Having a "salad" in the Kayak isn't fun! Thanks again for sharing your adventures on the water. 🎣🎣🎣
