SO MANY FISH, SO LITTLE TIME

Lake Jennings - Lakeside, CA (San Diego County)

Caught my personal best bluegill at Lake Jennings today using a night crawler on a Carolina rig, also caught a decent Chanel catfish on same method/bait. It was a slow day fishing and I’m pretty sure I caught the only 2 fish for the entire lake all day/night ha ha ha! #lakejennings #eastcounty #lakeside #sandiego #fishing #bluegill #panfish #nightcrawler #catfish #channelcatfish #sunfish#catchandreleaseintohotgrease
