Fly Fishing Bass – Smallmouth and Largemouth SoCal

spacefrogg5 asked:


Bass Fly Fishing I left Los Angeles to go fly fishing at “the Canals” My flies: chartreuse/white and orange/white clousers (I found these two colors work the best), reddish crayfish, foam spiders (normally used for panfish, but the smallies attack it like crazy, EXPLOSION CITY! ), and a black pencil popper (no name for this fly I just tied what I think might work) I made. I lost count after 40 bass. All and all it was an awesome day of fishing. My next video will be of the Colorado River. All my fish were released unharmed. So GET LOST PETA!!! I had to remake this because my girlfriend thinks my videos are the most boring thing on earth. WOMEN }:| by Jerry Phan :D

    Very cool, SF5. I admire your generosity in revealing your fishing spots. You are a good fisherman and, apparently, a good guy. Thanks for the video!

  10. spacefrogg5 says:

    hi i was using kinda my own version of a bunny crayfish. clousers work really well.

  11. deeznutts05 says:

    Hi just wondering where is the canals located? can you email me??

  12. xXDeadoraliveXx says:

    Those smallies are epic…

  13. spacefrogg5 says:

    oh cool, bass are really hard to catch unless you have the right stuff. if you’re fly fishing, its the best way. tie some white foam spiders, i tried all colors and white works best for top water, black leech flies, are awesome for wet flies. stay away from bait, it doesnt work there. people w/bait sit for 8 hrs and catch 2 fish, i fish for 1 hrs and land 20. shoot me a message next time. would love to go.

    space frog im going to jenks tomorrow sat-9-08 with my wife and my boy. he really wants to catch a bass.

  15. spacefrogg5 says:

    hi jusurfn, i really don’t recommend anyone going there this time. the area is 115 in the mornings 120 and up at noon and 110 degrees at midnight. i was there with a friend and he had heat stroke. so wait a little longer until it cools. i’m worried about ur kids and heat there, but send me an message and i’ll get you directions.

  16. jusurfn4fun says:

    Great day of fishing. I would love to take my son’s there. Can you share the location?

  17. RCboy250 says:

    wow great video,. man where is this, i usually fly fish for trout on the kern, piru. these bass look like a thrill could you perhapse tell me where this is, if not i understand…got to love those honny holes.

  18. spacefrogg5 says:

    ya that was me, i ended up with 69 largemouths. were you there too?

  19. BAGGEDCAMRY93 says:

    spacefrog did u go to jenks lake off highway 38 2wks ago. and fly fishing off the dock?

  20. spacefrogg5 says:

    hey, glass and 38 is a really great place, especially in the winter for trout. i normally go to lake nearby and usually get about 40-70 largemouth bass a day. use white foam spiders, black leeches, blue dragon flies, work the best with the spiders as the top fly ever there. send me a message and maybe i’ll c u guys there sometime.
