Had a nice forky on an neighboring ridge at 200 yards a few minutes before sunrise on sunday but didn't have a chance to shoot with him walking away from me into some thick brush over the Ridgeline. Still questioning if I should've taken the shot or not.

You're gonna get one man, just gotta stay grinding. I had two stalks on the same day on a nice forky two weekends ago and both times I got to 35-40 yards while he was bedded but didn't have a window to shoot so while waiting awhile to maybe see if he'd get up and move around he eventually caught...

Upper lake as in Palo verde?

He's talking about Loveland.

so basically it's all closed?

This is one of the smaller ones I caught over summer.

The lake is also so full that at one point in early summer the water was up almost to the road.

The fish survived surprisingly even though the lake was a puddle down by the damn. I went a few times over summer and a lot of bass thinking they'd be all skinny and unhealthy because of the loss of fish, but every single one was was healthy and fat.

It wouldn't let me upload the pictures so here's just a couple viedos.

Having surgery on my ankle again on Thursday for the second time this year that will end my season until late novmeber so I went out Saturday and Sunday. Both days I saw lots of action with does and only one little buck again. I counted 12 doe on saturday and 14 yesterday with most of the adult...

I'm guessing, its 28k acres and on both sides of Ortega with only 7% containment so the forest might be closed down for months or maybe a couple of years.

The fire is taking homes near Lake Elsinore now and up to 23k acres and no containment.

Made it out both mornings to my spot by 5:30 saw a single buck and doe both times around 200 yards away that bedded down at 7:45 yesterday and 8 today and unable to get a stalk going with where they were. The buck both days was a tiny fork and couldv'e been the same one, but didnt have the best...

When and what is your next stop?

You hunting CA at all this year?

Haven't see as many forkies as last year, did you take them all Hatchet?

Thought I'd add to this thread with D16 hours away from starting up.

Yeah but I have a hand full of weekends to hunt the whole season and would like to atleast just get out and give it a shot. I saw bucks and doe last weekend scouting and a few more bucks on cams the week before. I'd rather be out hunting in the heat seeing nothin than sit on my ass all weekend...

My Dad and Uncles bucks from the 2004 season then my uncles rifle buck I believe from 2010(all 3 from D16). Hoping to fill my first A22 and D16 tags this year.

I'll be heading up late tonight to maybe stumble across a buck early tomorrow where I've seen a few different bucks in the past few weeks. Problably get an evening hunt at a different spot where's ive seen a few decent forks as well. May repeat it on sunday depending on how tomorrow goes.
