Christmas Derby Day 1 Late report

[5150fishn]

Hit the lake friday afternoon to find Ben and his bro (sorry I forgot your name) already in line with the tarp set up and ready for some weather. I hit the tackle shop and chatted up Jimmy and Kewly for a while then headed back to the lineup. Shortly after the crew started to show up. Had a great night of laughs and food with Bobberboy, Seechrisfish, Thisfool, Hometown, Sirsnagsalot, Ben and his bro. Went to bed and was woken up early by Killa Fish Taco at like 3:30 Lol! Fell back to sleep just long enough to let Rooster wake me up! Sleep time over and time to fish. Due to the rain the roads werent driveable so I carried my kayak to the water. Damn that was a long hike. Should have drove the truck down the ramp. Lol! Fishing started slow for me today but by 8:00 it started to go off. Plenty of short bites on the troll today but got 3 quality fish (2- 2.5lbs) to commit and hit my stringer. No bigguns for me today but it was a fun day on the water. Sorry no pics but I know that I would probably drop my camera in the drink if I brought it on my yak. Had fun chasing Rooster around the lake and spending some needed leg stretching on shore for a short while with Chris and John. On my way in I stopped to talk to Candyman and my lure got smoked just sitting idle. Hungry trout or just some Candyman luck rubbing off on me. Chatted with Austin for awhile before I called it a day. Congrats to Rooster on the quali spot and too Trolly for some more quality cats! All my fish came on lures dipped in Bite-on Roe! Good seeing Aaron, Scott, Diego, and the rest of the Bite-on crew slaying as usual.

Thanks again to Irvine lake and staff for putting on such great events!

5150,

It's always great to hear about the comeraderie of all the Team 57 members at the lake. In line or on the water it's always cool to hear about the good times.:Cool:

Good job sticking with it and finding the fish!:Thumbs Up:

I was reading your report about the kitties, I wasn't able to make it out that day so that must have been Trolly! I was waiting for him to pick me up but he never showed!:Envious:
