Hi!
Got to the lake at 7 to wait in line, launched tubes at 830. Headed from farthest parking lot point towards the dam then iut to sierra cove, up the west shore, then out towards mid lake per the recommendations of the patrol boat. Of my gf and my buddy and I it was very slow to start. I got a dink class wiper by sierra cove to shake my stripe :Twisted:
My gf and friend were starting to get all over 2lbrs but nothing doing for me. I decide to change k y split shot from 1/32 to 1/16. I used so mu bite on garlic that my fishcat smells like an italian restaurant. I got seperated from the crew on the way to mid lake and suddenly as I pass a boat my gl2 gets that distinct tapping. I had already lost 4 nibbles so my initial energy was sarcastic at best. I set the hook only to have my rod tip go straight down in the water and line starts peeling. Great a carp! WRONG! This bastard pulls me around and very close to the boat (when they realized what was going on all I could dl was compliment a raiders hat I saw. I got clear of the boat and keep working. I never thought a 10 min fight would make my arms hurt like that. When I start to see color, I have no idea how I'm going to net this thing or what even happens next. I eventually netted it when I got it to lay sideways and give up. When I landed it I didn't know hkw to react so I laughed like a crazy person for a long time. We all got out so I could check in wince it would have certainly broken free from my chain stringer. I wound up in 3rd and qualified for the masters!
Thank you all for sharing your experiences on here. K wouldn't have ever figured this out on my own! I never thought I'd get my PB like this!
What is the masters like? If anyone that has been can share with me what to expect please I would appreciate it greatly!
