First Swimbait Fish

Featured Replies

I finally got my first swimbait fish ever yesterday. I was at the CA delta and on my third cast I land this 6.5lb fish.

A couple minutes later i got another bite on the swimbait. This one went 4.8lbs.

After that fish I set the hook into a big fish but it came off. Oh well :'(. Ended up with around 20lbs for five fish.

I was using a 3:16 mighty minnow on a lamiglas 797 flippin stick with a revo stx spooled with 65lb power pro. All in all it was a great day on the delta. ;D

Bryant,

Tell us more.

Water temperature. Type of structure you were fishing.  Do you think braid is the best line to use for swimbaits?  How deep were you fishing?  Type and weight of sinker, if any.

Details, details, details.

Thanks

P.S.  You did really good. Dream come true type fishing.

One more reason for me to hate all you Californians.   ;)
