I don't usually fish Lake Miramar for bass simply because it's too clear - like glass. There are some huge bass in there though. Maybe a few around 20 lbs or so for sure. Lake Poway produces big bass as does Sutherland Lake. Many of the bass will range from 8 - 17 lbs. The reason they get so big is the warm water and the planted trout. These guys literally chase them around in the winter, often times following a hooked trout right to your boat or float-tube. The "Castaic Trout Lures" work well during the winter while trout are being planted as do white jigs. Last week several Largemouth bass around 8 -14 lbs were caught on the east side of Lake Poway using swimbaits. These are the serious bassers 'cuz the lures cost $30 bucks apiece. Too rich for my blood. Man would I cry if I lost one on a sunken tree. Tight lines and good fishing!
