Been years since fishing at Lake Dixon , Escondido! Beautiful lake, and I will be sure to come fish it again. I really all the appreciate all the good vibes out there. Been busy with life, being a dad and loving husband . That its hard to find the time to fish and film with the hours of editing that is involved. So I do really appreciate all the love ! I will continue to make videos, and share content with the community either way :) - Rod
Looks like Trout Cove. Thanks for the videos showing your full techniques. Reading how to use a jig doesn't help but watching does. I've never caught anything with a trout jig but I also had never really known how to use it.
appreciate the love! hope you get on them next time! I will be going to dixon next time :D I saw some trophy sized trout, that I want to redeem and try and catch
Nice video as always. Btw, my grandchildren loves the playground in Escondido, probably called the grape day park. Sometimes the model train museum there also open to the public, which makes dixon lake a family friendly place
Awesome video as usual, thanks for the tips. Eventhough I been fishing for years I always learn something new fishing with you, keep sharing the knowledge.
Nice video. If you grab a boat, the reeds in Catfish cove (close to pier 4), typically has some bigger trout mixed in with all the bass that live there.
I've been hearing about the lines to get into Dixon this year are ridiculous. That will defintely keep me from going there.. too many other spots without that crowd. You guys did great on the jigs.. I feel ya on the 5 and out policy
Darn, just turned on the 'puter, saw the Utube notification, thought I'd be the 1st 'Like'. Looks like I got beat to the punch. Here's the "Fish Whisperer" at it again. Never miss a single one, I might learn something. Ironically, I just picked up a Californian 7'6" Ultra light, Sedona 500 with 4 Lb Izor line coupla' days ago at Turner's just for Dixon, Wohlford, Poway. This looks to me like your on the shoreline on the left of the Handicapped Dock?? Yes/No?? The docks get too busy, too much noise, distraction on a busy day. That's why I go week day mornings. Seems from what I've seen the stocked trout don't wander out too far from the boat dock where they were dumped into the lake, stay closer to the west end of the lake. Like you mentioned, otherwise they become lunch for those big bass. Do you know the history of that monster 20+ Lb Bass, named 'Spot' or 'Spotty'. I think it's up on the San Diego Fishermans web site if I recall. Also made a local news story in one of the local papers. Apparently found by another angle, died perhaps of old age. Had been caught and released several times over the years, allowing it to grow and grow and grow. A good story.
Hello Dan! Na this was the shoreline on the right of the boat dock :) The footage was still of the tree line still representing that the trout were under the shade, under the tree line :) . Yes I remember that documentary of the big bass caught at Lake dixon called "Dotty" as it had a distinctive mark on its chin or jaw line. Huge bass that most likely gave many offsprings that maybe up to her caliber :) tight lines !
You always have quality videos, especially on local Sd waters. I grew up fishing all those Sd spots. But had to move on to bigger and better things... the eastern Sierras is where it’s at🤙
Quoting you..."bounce that mini-jig right in front of his face". So, my question is...how are your results when you're not able to see the trout swimming right near the shore...and you can't drop a bait on his head? No offense intended, but I don't see that much sport in sighting them and dropping a jig in front of them. I know you rack up numbers like that...and if that's your goal, you seem to have it down. But my question remains...do you have any tips for those of us that are fishing by the conventional means of trying to figure out where they might be on a certain day, in certain conditions; figuring out which bait to use; figuring out the depth they're holding at; presenting the bait appropriately; etc? I mean, you've got to admit...dropping a jig in front of a trout that's ten feet off shore and then reeling them in with twenty cranks isn't much sport. So, what do you recommend at Dixon when the stockers aren't plentiful and you have to work for a bite? Thanks.
good read, good question! If I am trying to elicit a bite without seeing them, I have two techniques. spoons and trout dough. spoons can be used to cast far, and to attract any trout from distance away because of their flash and erratic motion. Second, trout dough, is a good technique to check if trout are hugging the bottom in deeper waters. At Lake Dixon, there are certain channels and "holes" that produce trout and using trout dough would be beneficial. Finding those sweet spots will take some investigation :) Hope this helps!
Yeah some lakes in So Cal, are getting different trout from a different plants. And the size of the trout are way smaller. Lake Dixon, however, are still getting the same plant from last year
Rodney's Fishing Adventure I’m near Jess Ranch, and the word I’ve heard is due to smaller plants of smaller fish, this is gonna be a slow trout season. All the small lakes around me having been doing horrible, and they are definitely lying about how much they’re stocking
excellent question . I think it helps :) However I think: line size, colors, size of lure, how you work the lure all have a greater influence than scent. Not all the time, but I do see slight difference when using scent and when not using them.
I have a question... do you think a small sweep to the side is a better hook set than a over the head hookset? I did the small sweep to the side at poway and lost 2. One being about a 2lber right at the shore sadly.
good question, I think its all preference. I have a habit of setting it to the side, as I often have trees over head of me. and the only way to set the hook is a side sweep
Been years since fishing at Lake Dixon , Escondido! Beautiful lake, and I will be sure to come fish it again.

Great video brother! Yummy 😋 trout good vibes 🤙🏾🎥🎣👌🏾🔥
I always go fishing here but get skunked! Do you have any tips?
I love this lake!
So sick! I saw you
where were you fishing? should have said hi :)
Bout to make the drive out from Corona. You earned a sub brotha. Early A.M. targeting bass. That last trout gives me hope (;
Thanks for the sub! wish you luck man! Personally I would use 6 lb test, roboworm drop shot, and early morning frog bite on the tullies :)
I want my name to be “Rod” 🎣 Nice video bro beans 💪🏼 Keep on keepin on!
Thanks man! Will keep up the grind :) good luck out there
Rodney, there catching brown trout right now at cuyamaca lake .
nice! Been a while since I caught a brown trout! thanks for the intel
Nice video
Thank you Darren!
You always have quality videos, especially on local Sd waters. I grew up fishing all those Sd spots. But had to move on to bigger and better things... the eastern Sierras is where it’s at🤙
I fished the eastern sierras a handful of times. Great place and definitely a whole new level of fishing up there. :)
Right on Jared definitely true I just caught the lake record at intake 2 14 pound brown
Quick question, I'm starting a channel myself, what GoPro do you use and do you have a mic with it?
I use a go pro hero 7. Have fun!
You should do a catch n cook
I forgot!!! I need to . And I will . Thanks for the support
I used a ice fishing plastic jig as a joke trout fishing😂 but ended up catching alot of fish maybe jigs should be my go to!!
nice! which ones? I need to try them out too hehe
Rodney's Fishing Adventure it was the gitzit tough guy, it’s like a lil minnow and it works amazing here in utah
@@Toobluejzs147 ooo just checked it. ive used that before way long ago! I need to buy one again :D haha
...and watching all the way from Utah?! thats sweet. thanks for the support
Rodney's Fishing Adventure yezzir but for the mini jigs i found that the brown ones worked best for me
nice video
Thank you sir!
Is there a way to tell if they’re on the hook without actually seeing them bite the lure while you’re jigging?
excellent question. For me, it feels like a very small "tic" of a feeling. they bite so softly, they like to spit the jig out quickly.
Quoting you..."bounce that mini-jig right in front of his face". So, my question is...how are your results when you're not able to see the trout swimming right near the shore...and you can't drop a bait on his head? No offense intended, but I don't see that much sport in sighting them and dropping a jig in front of them. I know you rack up numbers like that...and if that's your goal, you seem to have it down.

Another awesome video Rodney! Have you ever fish on a seadoo fish pro before? Let me know if you’re down to catch some spotty or halibut in the bay.
Thank you Bao! I never fished on a seadoo fish pro before. I would be down someday. message me on instagram :)
Rodney, have you heard how the trout stockings aren’t what they are suppose to be in Southern California this year?
Yeah some lakes in So Cal, are getting different trout from a different plants. And the size of the trout are way smaller. Lake Dixon, however, are still getting the same plant from last year

@@Marioag20 I feel ya. Its tough, sometimes its hard to see if they actually planted or not. wish you luck out there !
1st like, 1st comment and I loved this video
Bruh Killem you even beat me ! Haha thanks bro
Nice video I stay in escondido. What spot was this at thanks 😊
Mmmmmmmmmmm
is what im going to say in disneyland hehehe
Oops, meant to ask...Do you use any of the sprays, attractants or even believe in them?? Some swear by them, some say snake oil. Whudda' YOU think???
excellent question . I think it helps :) However I think: line size, colors, size of lure, how you work the lure all have a greater influence than scent. Not all the time, but I do see slight difference when using scent and when not using them.
Any preferred favorites??@@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel
U ever tried nightcrawlers/redworms in Dixon?
Will you be at the trout derby this weekend?
Jack's creek
nice
Where does someone buy notorious jig heads?
good question! Message him on instagram.com/notorious_custom_jigs/
tell him i sent ya :)
I have a question... do you think a small sweep to the side is a better hook set than a over the head hookset? I did the small sweep to the side at poway and lost 2. One being about a 2lber right at the shore sadly.
good question, I think its all preference. I have a habit of setting it to the side, as I often have trees over head of me. and the only way to set the hook is a side sweep
You don't need a license here I'm trying to go tomorrow but don't know all the specifics?
Which mini jig color is the best
green melon shiner
Trout love shady areas? True because it's harder for their aerial predators to spot them among other things.
Yesir! 100% agree
