Hello everyone,
Thanks for checking out my post. A few weeks ago I posted something on the board about fishing at El Dorado. Thanks to those of you that responded.
I finally made it out there with my boy yesterday. I had purchased some meal worms and was going to try my luck at trying to show my 2 year old some blue gill.
Here is where the dream began. As I approach the 2nd pond, going from the northern most pond being the 1st, I pull up to West side of the lake, and I see what I have been hearing about and reading about all these years.
Yes.. It is.. The Dept. of Fish and Game truck. It was about 11:30 am. I walk up to the guy driving the truck and ask him if he was making a drop off, and he tells me he already did. I'm not sure if I heard him right, but I think he said he just dropped off 900 lbs of rainbow trout.
From where the truck and I were I could see the trout jumping out of the water. It was AWESOME!! However, this is were the nightmare begins. None of the trout were interested in my meal worms, and the panther martins that I have been so successful with are all at home. I didn't end up staying that long. My 2 year old was done after like 30 minutes.
I will be back there with trout gear, and maybe I can get that skunk off my back.
Thanks for looking.
Tight lines.
