I decided to fish Pyramid Lake with my buddy off his boat for the first time ever to get a change of scenery from The Lagoon. I got up around 5am and headed up to Pyramid from Pasadena, not knowing how high the elevation was. I got up there and didn't know it was that cold. Damn, I shouldn't have worn shorts!

While waiting in line for the gates to open, I was asked by this guy if the LMB fishing had been any good lately. Being a newbie to FNN and not knowing who all the big time players are yet, I didn't know who this guy was until I saw his post later that night. (TroutOnly [striper legend] I'm sorry I didn't get to talk with you longer and pick your brain on the striper slay. It was just too dang cold out there).

I fished from 7am to 1pm and finished the day with 2 LMB's and 1 Smallie, ranging from 2 lbs to 4 lbs. Not bad for my first time on that lake. I caught all the fish on a split shot rig using a Roboworm (Junebug Chartreuse) 4 inch straight tail.

Sorry about the late post, been busy at the office. I hope you guys enjoy the photo and post. Good luck out there and tight lines. C & R!

No never, I'm all about catch and release when it comes to LMB or Smallies. I have no problem with people keeping their bass, but I never do.

Sup Mike! Way to hit Pyramid on your first try. Like I was telling you the other day, we hit up Pyramid last time we went camping up there, but skunked. Some dudes caught a nice cat.

I hit up the SECRET FISHING HOLE this weekend and skunked. I'll talk to you soon. Keep it up and thanks for sharing.

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a143/CarlosMySpace/SecretFishingHole.jpgLOL. You're crazy Carlito's. I can't believe you are actually giving up pics on you're secret spot. Nice shoes and does that bobber really help you catch more fish homies?

Hey Fire Ball, no I only took one photo I was in a hurry to release them back into the lake. I'll take more next time for sure. I hear the smallies pound for pound are a stronger fish, but I couldn't really tell I was just so excited to reel fish in for the day. See you soon buddy.


cool report. Thanks Bowler, I'll hit you up for the secret bait soon. ;-)
