New to forum. I moved from IB a few years ago to south Texas to start up my own tackle business (www.texasbasstackle.com) I still miss fishing the lake of Southern California but it's not quite as crowded here. I can go out of Canyon Lake during the week in the spring/fall and might not ever see another boat. We have just starting fishing the swimbaits here. Most of the big stringers here in south texas are caught on Luhr Jensen Hot Lips. I'll be visiting my daughter in San Diego in the near future what is the hottest lake?
