spinnerbaits, crankbaits and of course live baits especially crawdads.

Dixon has been made famous in recent years by a series of catches
(likely the same bass) that have grasped national attention. In April
of 2001, Mike Long of Poway caught a 20 lb. 12 oz. bass. Just over two
years later, in June of 2003, Jed Dickerson of Carlsbad caught a 21 lb. 11.2 Oz.
bass. This is where it gets really interesting - the 21 lb 11 oz
monster is thought to be the same bass that Long caught (and released)
in 2001. Made famous by her "beauty mark" the distinct bass has earned
her share of publicity. Most would assume a bass this size would be
near the end of its growing stage and not be able to add much more
weight, or live much longer for that matter.

 Mission Bay provides anglers an extremely diverse year-round fishery.
The bay is generally shallow, with the max depth in most areas of the
bay being only 12 feet with slow sloping sand bottoms. Some areas,
including the Mission Bay Channel, Mariner's Basin and Quivera Basin
have a max-depth of 20 feet. The majority of the shoreline is sand, but
there are several areas (along the Mission Bay channel for example)
that are lined with rocks. There is roughly 27 miles of shoreline along
Mission Bay, with 19 miles of that being comprised of sand.
