Hi everyone! My name is David and last year I started getting into bass fishing and not long after felt the need to get on the water so I got a cheap 10' kayak from sports authority. Now that spring is aproaching I've been feeling the need to get out there. When I first got it I was just sticking to fox grove in Modesto because it's close. I was wondering if you guys could point me towards some good launch sites for kayaks. Yesterday I parked at the country club in Stockton and got one decent LMB. Just want to find some good places to go! Would love to meet up with people too! Looking forward to being part of this site! Looks like a cool community. Thanks!!

Welcome!  If I lived in Modesto, I'd be fishing Don Pedro, New Melones, or Lake McClure/McSwain A LOT!  Good luck out there and we'll be looking forward to your fishing reports.

welcome to the Club!
Fish laugh when I paddle by.  Sometimes they laugh so hard they fall on my hook.

Welcome David.

Yesterday I parked at the country club in Stockton and got one decent LMB.

You get that bass on the kayak?  :smt044

Jason/Str8Fishin is right on the money.  Being from Mo-town, there are lots of places to catch bass near Modesto.  My uncle fishes Moccasin Marina and never leaves that Marina cove.  Plenty of bass in there.

The delta isn't too far either.

Best of luck and make it to a hook-up.

Ah, I had imagined you putting the kayak on the pond OF the country club.  That would have been top notch!  :smt044  :smt003
