Lake Isabella Crappie Fishing From Shore

[@uzumakinagato8113]

Light gear is the way to go. I legit seen some ppl out there with mh/h rods with 30-40 pound braid like bruh... that’s hella overkill for these little crappies

[@thecsickfisherman]

Lol Ikr. Have u been out the recently?

[@leeallan6576]

For minnows, try Mountain Vista market & gas at Lake Isabella, near Kusack Cove. It’s about $6.99/dozen.

[@davidl4986]

Dope video bro, thanks for showing all of us the rope. Can’t wait to hit up issabella for some pan fishing.

[@thecsickfisherman]

Anytime bro. I wish I knew these lil tips the 1st 2 times I went out there lol. I got skunked the 1st time , 5 the 2nd and killed the 3rd

[@kbwolf8338]

That's my jam. Lake Isabella is super cool lake. But if you want trout go up above on the river. Great video.

[@thecsickfisherman]

Thanks!!! What kind of trout?

[@kbwolf8338]

@@thecsickfisherman they got Rainbows, brown and golden trout up by Johnsondale bridge but north of the bridge has different regulations, so check those. It's more Rainbows then anything.

What about yourself?

[@jayjudah6508]

I fished with this amazing brotha and his family today at Irvine lake. We had a blast and got to pull in a few crappie on his custom jigs he makes. So please support him and go online and order those jigs. Slugs and tubes of all different colors that you cannot get just anywhere.

[@thecsickfisherman]

Thank you so much Bro!!!! It’s was a great day fishing with u and your son. Y’all make a 🔥🔥 team bro. We definitely have to fish again soon 🎣 I’m trying to get out and get some yellowtail this summer.

[@synaptik111]

Love how you help other anglers out man. Not a lot of folks are willing to do that, but I do whenever I can as well! Teaching my man the uni knot and how to rig the plastic was cool. Is the bank always that crowded?

[@thecsickfisherman]

Thanks bro!! In that area it is. But I haven been back in over a month. Idk if the crappie are in close on the bank anymore

[@Crappie_Day]

Its funny how crappie after you set the hook they kinda just stay still and don’t fight back much lol 13:25

[@thecsickfisherman]

Yea. But u still have to be careful because of the paper mouths

O know this video was made 1 year ago but what side of the lake were u on? Love watch ur videos. U don't make too many.

[@thecsickfisherman]

Hey. I’m not sure what area you are in but Isabella is far from me and I don’t fish there often. Only when the bite is very good. The water levels change often so I can’t give recommendations on the way it is now or what areas to fish. Just what to look for. Like the types of structures

[@ollieholt5306]

Thanks for answering me back but we heard that the water was very low and the bit not good .we live in south central LA. Vermont and Broadway area. Too far to go for nothing and too expensive for us at this time. Mayb later this year r next Spring.

Thanks bro. I’m new to bass fishing and I’m leaning as I go

[@mr.goodbass9445]

what side or campground were you at? the lake is huge, wasnt sure which side to go to for crappie. wanna go back.

[@thecsickfisherman]

I don’t know the name of that location, but any area with a lot of rocks or trees work best. You just have to make sure it’s not to windy.... someone comment below about the name of that area.

When was the last time you went?

Mr. GoodBass that’s the problem.

[@pentalax]

I'm a fan for life now. Thanks for the video. Was there this past weekend targeting the trout and got skunked. My normal spot had low water levels so it didn't hold any fish. Do you look for those reeds and trees sticking out the water when you target the crappie?

[@thecsickfisherman]

I’ve never fished there in the summer because it’s far from me. I always target the trees , but I heard the crappie hold in deeper water in the summer.
