Got out again this morning to Lake Berryessa. It was supposed to be a 100 deg day so my plan was to get out early and head for home before things got too hot. I got to the lake at about 6:15 am. Made the 4 mile run to my secret spot. It must be secret because no one else was there. I could see other boats trolling were focusing on an area about a mile away. Haha
I headed back to the ramp at about 10 am. Managed one crappie and three trout ranging from 13" to 17". Got the crappie at 35' and the trout at 42' to 45'. All of the action was on the port side rod. Not a twitch on the starboard side rod.
I got a massive backlash after the second trout. So bad I had to do surgery and probably cut away half my line before I got it sorted. Yeah, I was trolling. Don't want to talk about it any more. :shock:
Caught everything on this needle fish with a trout worm added to the hook.
