I took my new to me aluminum boat out for the first time to perris to find some gills. Got to the lake and in the water around 9:00. Tons of bass boats all over today. I only seen one fish caught and it was about a 3lb. large mouth and the dude put it on a stringer and kept it.
My buddy and i were after gills and did better then most. We ended up trying all over the lake. Around 2pm we found a spot near the dam and hooked in to some fat gills. We only ended up with 10 total but everything was a good size. Everything was caught on drop shotted crickets.
My new boat rocks. I picked it up for $200 and put about $300 into it to get it running. Engine needed a new impeller and the trailer need some work. Didnt leak 1 drop in about 7 hours. The little outboard is older then me but still runs great. I think i scored on this deal. I am heading back out there again tomorrow. Maybe i'll hook into some more.
Casting off around 9. It was a little chilly on the water this morning.

This is the only picture i took of a fish. This was the smallest fish of the day.
