The recent California Delta Western FLW Series was originally to be held at Lake Shasta, but low water levels forced a return to the Delta for the season finale.

Before the event began, many in the field noted that locals would have a tremendous advantage, simply because the Delta's a different fishery in fall, and traditionally, circuits visit in spring and early summer.

The local prediction came true. The final Top 10 was dominated by Delta studs, and Delta expert Ish Monroe topped them all.

Monroe weighed 22-plus pounds on day 2, averaged around 16 pounds the other 3 days, and won by a relatively large 6-pound margin.



"It feels good to finally win on the FLW side, considering I've been a two-tour guy for a while," Monroe said.

About all the Delta big sticks in the Top 10, he noted: "It was really cool. All those guys kicked my butt for many years out there on the Delta. I was at every single Bassmaster that Robert Lee won. Mike Reynolds is one of the deadliest guys there is here. Is there truly anybody better with a frog than Bobby Barrack? To finally beat them all felt pretty good."

Here's how he did it.

Practice

Monroe decided to dedicate each day of the 4-day practice to a different section of the Delta. He started in the south, then moved to the central area. He fished north on the third practice day, and finished in the west Delta.

Water temperature was in the mid-60s.

He used a crankbait, frog and plastic in the search for fish.

"I felt like the north-central Delta was the best, just because of the concentration of fish I found in an area near Franks Tract," he noted. "The fish weren't actually in Franks Tract, because the grass was gone from spraying.

"I think when they sprayed the grass, the fish just got into the current and moved. I just had to hunt around for them, and when I found them, I really found them."

Monroe began day 1 at his hot bank in Franks and the bite was on.

Monroe made a critical decision with 2 hours left to fish – he fished new water and whacked two 5-pounders.

He estimated he caught 35 to 40 fish both flipping and tossing a frog. That was remarkable since so many in the field struggled to catch even five that day.

"The frog was a little bit of a morning deal, but it was more about when the tide came up and put some water underneath the mats," he noted. "The bite was best the first day when the water would go up."

Blastoff was at low tide, and when he got to his area, he had about a half-hour before incoming.

He caught good fish again on day 2 from the same area, but the frog bite was gone and he caught them all flipping.

"I caught a 6, 5, 4 and two 3s," he noted. "I must have caught 40 to 50 keepers, and it was an all-day deal. I caught the 6-pounder first thing in the morning, then the 5-pounder at about 11:00, then the 4-pounder at about 12:30 or 1:00."

Day 3 offered drastically different conditions. "The wind blew hard – 25 to 30 mph," Monroe said. "I picked up a Hildebrandt spinnerbait, thinking that bite would really be on. For some reason it wasn't, and I think I caught one keeper. So I just put my head down and started flipping again.

"At that time, I had about 2 hours before the low tide, and for some reason the fish that day bit best on the low tide. I think the wind positioned them on the edge of that grass, and I was flipping the edges of grass and the deeper clumps. I caught a 5-pounder and ended up catching 14 1/2 pounds."

That put him in 1st with 1 day left to fish.

Conditions the final day were tough again. The air temperature had dropped from the 80s into the high-60s and low-70s, and the water temperature in the morning was about 7 degrees cooler.

"The front was pretty much blown through, but it was still blowing hard," Monroe said. "And it was cold. I started out with flipping again, but it was slow. I pulled out the frog, pulled out the spinnerbait, pulled out the crankbait – it just wasn't happening."

At 12:30, with 2 hours left, he had two rats in the box and reached a critical juncture.

"I got kind of frustrated, and I said to myself, 'You can't get frustrated,'" he noted. "Like the first time I won, at Amistad, I sat down, drank a vitamin energy drink, put a bunch of rods away, and made a decision to move from the area I was fishing and expand a little bit.

"Driving by, I saw this one spot I hadn't fished in a while. I've caught a lot of fish in the area, but they're usually small. I knew a limit was just what I needed, so I pulled in and they started biting – and I mean biting."

Monroe's two baits were a Snag Proof Bobby's Perfect frog in sparrow (top) and a Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver in sprayed grass (bottom).

In those 2 hours, he caught about 20 keepers, including two 5-pounders. "Realistically, I had about 8 or 9 pounds in the boat before the fish really turned on hard. When the tide started coming in, they started chewing, and I culled each of those fish out."

Winning Pattern Notes

Monroe described his main area near Franks as "a random bank" he hadn't fished in over 10 years. It was a mix of riprap and tule berms, with a lot of grass.

"It was one place on the Delta that had a lot of grass," he noted. "It was still green. The first few days, before the wind, it had the green-moss frog stuff that fish love so much. There were huge holes underneath it with no grass. So you'd have this huge layer across with holes inside. When the wind blew it apart, the fish moved off and I concentrated on the real big clumps."

Winning Gear Notes

> Frog gear: 7'4" heavy-action Daiwa Zillion rod, Daiwa Zillion casting reel (6:1), 65-pound PowerPro braid, Snag Proof Bobby's Perfect frog (sparrow).

> Flipping gear: 8' heavy-action Daiwa Steez rod, Daiwa Zillion casting reel (7:1), 65-pound PowerPro braid, 5/0 Youvella straight-shank hook (prototype), Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver 4.20 (sprayed grass).

> He flipped with three different Tru-Tungsten Denny Brauer Flippin' weights – 1-ounce (black), 1 1/4-ounce (junebug) and 1 1/2-ounce (watermelon).

> He pegged the weights with two Peter T. Smart Pegs – one on the line side of the weight, the other on the hook side.

The Bottom Line

  • Main factor in his success – "Fishing the deeper grass clumps. They were anywhere from 3 to 8 feet deep. Everybody else was flipping the pennywort and the little bit of hyacinth and laid-down tules. I was flipping in deeper water where most of their boats were sitting."

  • Performance edge – "The 8-foot Daiwa Steez rod. Everybody thinks that when you flip heavy mats you need this really big hammer of a rod. But when you set the hook with a hammer it has no give. It opens the fish's mouth and the bait pops out. I helped design this Steez. It has a little bit lighter tip, with a little more give to it, so you can do more of a hard-pressure set and it brings the hook right into the roof of their mouth."

  • He noted too of the Steez rod: "It's lighter than any 7 1/2-foot flipping stick. It's the lightest flipping stick on the market. I'll pair it with a 7:1 Steez reel when it becomes available. You flip with that all day and you won't want to flip with anything else – it's that light. That rod and reel combo's reinventing the fishing industry as we speak. The lighter the equipment, the more fun it is, and it's making fishing fun again."

    Notable

    > This was Monroe's only Western FLW Series event of the year. He's fishing the entire Eastern FLW Series though.

    > Fred Roumbanis found the same area near Franks that Monroe did. "Fred would start in a different area then end up in the area I was fishing toward the middle of the day," Monroe said. "I'd like to give him a little love, because he laid off my spot on day 3. I thought that was really cool and I'll pay him back the favor some day."
