Cachuma sucked today. Me and Todd fished it from 12 to 5 and didn't catch anything. Todd had one bass<BR> attack his spinner bait while he was crawling it along the bottom right in front of it but I think it was getting<BR> so pissed off from being harassed that it was going for his spinner bait's jugular. Todd and I never caught<BR> anything all day. I think the only logical explanation is that all the aggressive bass dug a big tunnel from<BR> Cachuma to margarita and they all went over there and that's why the bite is on fire at margarita and dead at<BR> Cachuma. It couldn't be that they've been harassed day after day for three months and traumatized by<BR> spinner baits and soft plastic worms invading their nests. The fishing sucked, the weather was hot and then<BR> got cold when the wind picked up at around 4. there wasn't a cloud in the sky and the water was still clear. I<BR> have one more thing to say. Keeping largemouth bass during the spawn is not cool. I think if you catch a bass<BR> on a nest you should let it go and have baby bass. If you want to keep some bass do it in the summer or<BR> something. And if you really want some fish dinner, catch a trout!!! they don't taste like mud!!!
