I love the way you break down a dock. You don't go straight to the sweet spots and disturb all the fish. You first hit the outside areas and then you hit the sweet spots. Great job!

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for watching Mark-you never know where the fish are.

8:25 "We're pulling up to my kind of party"... haha That gave me a chuckle.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support. The Delta in general is my kinda party. Good Luck

@davegwiazdon8450 Год назад

Since I'm pretty much caught up on your recent videos, I headed back into some of your older ones....this is my favorite way to catch a bass. Fishing the edges with finesse techniques. Another great video!

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 Год назад

Thanks Dave. I will be doing some videos this winter hoping to share some info to help get ready for the spring bite. Good luck in 2023.

Delta reports are always helpful.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

I'l start the reports next week and try and post Wen. or Thurs. so weekend anglers can make plans-thanks for watching

@OscarHernandez-sg7lz Год назад

Living and fishing in Discovery Bay in a kayak , I almost only fish docks . Most of my success comes from skipping under the docks . I feel like a wacky rig or even a zoom super fluke works so well around the docks . If you can get behind the docks sometimes a drop shot works pretty well as well

@DigitaLIon781 3 года назад

Whoa! Thank you for your tips, and insights on reading docks and the surrounding area. I'm a beginner fisherman, and love the Delta. Excellent videography and commentary. Subscribed!

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support-I will start posting a weekly report on Delta conditions on Thursdays-let me know what you think-thanks again

@tcm124 3 года назад

Yes yes yes, updates please. Definitely appreciate any of your help. Hope to thank you in person one day. Be safe and thanks again.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support Tom-reports will start this week-I'm new to doing reports so let me know what info. you would like to see included-I may post a repot tonight-Thanks again-make sure you say Hi if you see me on the water-good luck

@artlamb713 2 года назад

Thanks for the time and effort you put into your videos. I recently moved back to Cali from Florida. So catching up on Delta techniques is very beneficial to me.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 2 года назад

Thanks Art - glad you found the channel and hpoe to see you on the river some day.

@chipkoehler9480 3 года назад

Steve you are making GREAT instructional videos on the Delta. Yes please do weekly report/update videos.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support. The weekly reports will continue-remember the winter reports will be slow so keep posted and starting around Feb. conditions will start to change rapidly so I think the reports will have much more information.

@jeffw3776 3 года назад

As I discover your older vids I must say your info is invaluable...how about inside and around Marinas...Suggest Rio Vista Marina...ha ha

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks Jeff-Thats a good idea-I fish Marinas a lot-have not fished Rio Vista marina-I like the smaller ones with less trafic and the abandond one are even better.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support-good luck on the docks-they have been producing for me lately-look for the single docks-lots of anglers pass them because it's too much trouble to fish one dock-they always seem to hole a fish or two for me-thanks again

@lupefernandez6332 3 года назад

Thanks, I struggle on the delta. This will help.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Good luck Lupe. Thank you for watching.

@Prentis1 3 года назад

Thanks for your great videos Steve. My drive to the delta is from 2.5 to 3 hours depending on ramp location. So a weekly report would be awesome. And yes it's okay to congratulate your self when you catch em. I usually crack open a celebration beer on my first fish. Lol

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks Prentis-I will start the reports next weel-I think I'll try and post Wed. or Thur. so folks like tourself can make plans-I will be adjusting the information as I get feed back on what everyone would like to to here so let me know if I'm leaving anything out-Thanks again for the support.

@wdh1068 3 года назад

Hi Steve, glad you are back on the boat! Thanks for the fantastic video. Honestly, I am one of those that passes up the docks. I guess most videos I see are of docks that don't seem to float - instead they are like those at Clear Lake with giant wood pilings and lots of space from the dock to the water. Delta docks look like they are always right on the water so I don't feel confident that I can fish them. I will adjust that viewpoint and look for some of these. I actually have the cover craw but haven't tried it yet. Looks like a good place to give it a try. Would love to see the reports. I mean, I would LOVE to see them. I've been struggling on the delta in the last 2 weeks. I'm terrible at finding the fish when the water cools off and would love reports and tips on cold water delta fishing. I put my kayak away thinking that my season was probably over. Maybe you can encourage me to get it back down and get out there! :)

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Yes-I'm back but only partially-TM is ok-power motor is running on temp.repair(waiting for Gasket)so I'm keeping close to the dock- I guess thats why I have been working the docks. The docks will cool down a bit in winter but next year remember to give them a try-keep me posted -when The Covid thing calms down lets do a trip-I always up for fishing with new partners-when I was guiding I always learned from the folks I had on the boat-I will start posting reports next weel- thanks again for the support

@fidellanderos3122 3 года назад

A weekly report would be fantastic. I’m a new subscriber and appreciate your content.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks Fidel-I'mgoing to try and post weekly reports on Thursday-make sure you check out the report tomorrow-I willhave a interesting report with some under water video that will show how many fish are in the Delta.

@tysonprice109 3 года назад

Awesome info Steve! I just moved down from Oregon, where I lived the last five years, but prior to that I lived in Fresno 29 years prior minus being stationed at Fort Leonard Wood in MO. I’ve watched fishing shows since I was a kid in MS, your show is second to none. Very informative very detailed. I purchased my first boat in fall 2018 after fishing years as a co-angler in tournaments. I’ve made two tips out on the Delta I can’t wait to try the techniques you’ve shared, especially the reverse rigging to get baits further under docks. I have only launched from Ladd’s any other suggestions?

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

I fish out of Paradise Point-has easy acc. to Disappointment and Whites slough plus the central Delta-Russo,s is the place to launch if your fishing the Franks Track aria-The calaveras river is full of bait right now-saw some big fish around the mouth and the aria aroung Riveria Cliffs shound be holding some strippers just for fun-check it out if you go out of Ladd's-good luck

@Mark-dj5qf Год назад

Awesome!!!

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 Год назад

Thanks Mark-see you on the river. Good luck in 2023.

@TheSwoooo 3 года назад

Updates please! I’ve had plenty of experience fishing docks on the delta. Mostly I fish discovery bay as I only had a small aluminum Jon boat. I recently bought a fiberglass boat so I’ve been expanding my area and skipping most of the docks. I don’t know about going into the fall and fishing that area but early spring to just about fall you can fish those docks. 100% agree with the crusty old docks they hold more fish then the new. Disco bay gets sprayed at some point and it really slows down so watch out for that. I really liked your special dock baits. Thanks so much!!!

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support-yea-docks are really great in the summer. I like fishing single docks when I find them-they seem to always be good for a few fish-I think a lot of fisherman pass them-it may be too much trouble for them to fish a single dock-if you check out my 30 lb. challand video I was fishing the docks in Sand Mound.

@rtarr12c 3 года назад

Thank you for the great info. I struggle at the delta so any info is great. I would love to know where the fish are bitting and what they may want to eat. Thanks again.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for watching Rick-I can't always make them bite but I'm always trying and glad to shair the information.

@albertocolon6133 3 года назад

I love the videos man great information. I’m a new boater and don’t know why way to well around the delta so I’m not sure where to go all the time. Is there anyway on your videos that you can just put coordinates to where you fish. Would really love to know where these spots are.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support Alberto. The entire Delta has fish-some spots are better than others. I have to be carleful giving coordinates because most of my spots have been passed on to me from other people. If you see me on the water make sure you stop and say Hi-I will be glad to give info on where I have been fishing. If you watch my videos just look at the area's I'm in and look for similar spots-you will find fish. If your still having problems in June hit me up and I will be glad to help point you in the right direction.

@mikewu5937 3 года назад

Very informative videos. Delta fishing reports would be very helpful. I fish out of a kayak and can’t cover a lot of water so knowing if the north or south Delta is fishing better would be helpful! Thanks.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

I'll start the reports next week-I will usually be moving around the Delta but the first few reports my be from fishing around Paradis Point-I'm waiting on parts for my motor and am running on a Temp. repair so I'm staying close to home.

@mikewu5937 3 года назад

@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 Thanks for the help. On a related note, not sure if certain techniques, lures or colors are more applicable in the north vs south Delta. Great videos and extremely informative!

@garyspopusa8311 3 года назад

Great video. Very helpful and I love to dock fish so if you have a follow up that goes into more detail: I’d love it. And yes - the weekly delta report would be huge! Particular some info on the vegetation and spraying. Quick question. What test line are you fishing weightless senkos /wacky rigs? I hooked up a pretty nice fish yesterday exactly on the inside corner of a dock. I fish the wacky rig on 7# FC Sniper. I couldn’t turn the fish and lost it.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support-I will do another dock video pos. in the spring/summer-I also plan to start the reports next week-coincidentally I'm going out tomorrow with a naturalist to do a video on Delta vegetation-should have a video soon-My suggestion for wacky rig is no lighter than 10 to 12 lb. test in the winter and 16 to 20 in the summer-Sniper is great line but I woulld save my money and fish a good mono-the Delta is a toe to toe power game,sooner or later you will hook a monster and you'll need the heavey line-good luck.

@aProudOG 3 года назад

Thanks, great content! The old saying, “Know before you go” especially applies to the delta when it comes to safety. Can you offer advice on how anglers should safely traverse delta waters with which they are unfamiliar? Have you had bad experiences?

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the suppoer OG - my advice is to just slow down. If you want to run hard - stay on the main channel. Slow down in the sloughs and don't cut blind corners - use common sense. I have not had any bad experiences but know several anglers that have.

@prestonstephens6071 3 года назад

Weekly reports would be great.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

@Austin_Torres 3 года назад

Hey Steve thanks a lot for the update. I’d love to go over weekly conditions. It would be very useful for us all. I fish the delta a lot and always upload my experiences. Can you please go Over protecting yourself when the mosquitoes come out. I got chewed up this weekend from the mosquito 🦟 any update for protection would be appreciated. I hope I didn’t catch west Nile form this trip. Tight lines bud thanks

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Hey Austin-can't help with the Mosquitos-they usually don't bother me-what part of the Delta are you fishing? As far as the reports go I have had lots of good feed back so the reports will start next week-I think Wed. or Thur. will be a good day to load them.

@thomasatkins1204 2 года назад

What type of camera and audio set up are you running on the boat. It’s looks and sounds great.

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 2 года назад

Gopro 7 and 8 and I will have to recheck the brand of the mike.

@MJ-cw7hc 3 года назад

Great video Steve!! What part of the Delta is this? Love that place ;-)

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Thanks for the support Mike - all the docks in the video were on the central delta but docks all over the delta hold fish North -South -East -West. Make sure to check every dock you pass a give it a try - they all don't produce all the time but you will find lots of fish around docks.

I will make sure to do a cold water Bassen video-The Delta is a tough customer in the winter but I will pass along any info. I have-I will be posting some winter prep.videos in the next few weeks-yesterday I started doing a how to save yourself when you go overboard in cold water video-it should be fun and everyone should know the 1-10-1 procedure-you'll have to watch-It was only 57% water but it was cold.( I did go in to demonstrate.)

Man - I haven't fished for cray fish in years - they are all over but have no idea on where to start - sorry.

@kevsgonefishing 3 года назад

When you drop your bait next to a dock do you leave the line open???

@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 3 года назад

Every situation is different. Sometimes you can skip the bait under the dock. If you can't skip the bait you can try and feed line to thre bait to make sure the bait slides un under the dock. Thanks for the question. I may need to really go into detail on free line techniques. Thanks again.

Great - reports will start next week-They will be honest- I may fish 2 Delta tournaments next year and I will let my viewers know when I'm prefishing so their will be no report at that time- other than that they will be honest reports no mater if I catching fish or not. l will be adjusting info. as I get replies so let me know if theirs something I may be missing and you would like to have included.
