Actually fished it a few weeks before but brought My son Shayne and my buddy  Josh this time.

I had done pretty good a few weeks before on Jigs,Cranks,and a combination of trigged Baby Brush hogs/super hogs and turned these guys on to the same

This lake is loaded with Northern Strain and no Florida Strain which is rare for southern California.And no contrary to popular opinion its not all about Swimbaits and Dropshots out here.

14 hours of fishing and we ended the day with about 80 fish bettween us.Good times.

Here are some of the good ones.

couple more

Fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now there's a fun fishing trip right there...WTG Sam

Wow I am suprised there are not more comments on this thread. You got some great fish. What were the size's of the 1st and 3rd bass you posted?

Also belive it or not I know your son Shayne personally. I met him fishing at eastlake pond and have fished with him quite a few times. Tell him Steven congratulates him on the nice fish he caught too.

Those two pics that you are asking about are of the same fish.It was a hair under 7lbs. My Boga scale does not weigh oz.something like 6.88 if I remember correctly. Northerns put up a stronger fight imo

That pond in your Avitar has some nice Bass in it I still hope?Got this one out of there a few years back.10lbs 2 oz.That pond got overrun with the Carpage nastymus

Wow a 10 LB 2oz bass from there. I did not think there were any bass over 10 in that lake. That is by far the biggest one I have seen caught from Eastlake. Now adays that place has a very strong population of carp, koi, and catfish but not a strong population of bass. There are still some big ones in there but they are smart. You should try carp/catfishing in that lake in the fall/winter months. I have caught a bunch of carp over 10 lbs out of there and some over 15 lbs. I also pull out a lot of 6-8 Lb cats from that place.
