Thread: What happened at the Prado derby

  1. #1

    Default What happened at the Prado derby

    I know the winner was around 9 lbs. I can't believe that with all the people that showed, not one is a member of this board. Let's see a report!

    at least you got something, i was looking all around, no one was catching anything. Except for some dudes fishing from a point. Thats it.

    oh and some guys fishing next to us that landed like 3 2#ers, i guess the trout happened to swim by.

    i wouldn't pay for a derby ever again. its all business. Thats my view. Id rather fish prado in the weekdays.

    The winning fish weighed in at 9 lbs. 12 oz. I was there and yeah it was insanely crazy and crowded. Despite the fact that we got a less than great spot (like between a bunch of reeds), both my boyfriend and I caught 1 apiece. They were a nice 16" (the both of them). I've been sick with a bad cold all week (started around derby time) and have not posted my report yet. I'm feeling much better and will get those photos off my camera shortly.
