Who Caught Ya! Shasta Lake Bass

[Santa Fe Eric]

Nice report and good looking pics. Looks like you had alot fun. Let's fish soon brother.

Most definitely fellow Amigo! My Summer was way busier than I expected
ofr else I would have already extended the invite. My apologies.

Shasta looks like a beautiful place to fish. Now that's what I call a nice vacation. Fun reporting as always Eric, I dig your style!

Thanks Arthur, You are a good friend! You know we have to look good doing it!

Dang Eric, we are going to turn you into a basser yet (did I say that right??) LMAO.

Good job!!!

Thanks Nessie! I could note believe that I was catching Bass! If I could catch Bass like this in SOCal, I would be a happy man!

You look like Bill Dance sittin in the front using the trolling motor pulling in the bass. Great report as was the report showing your vacation!!!!

What a compliment! I appreciate that! It was a great vacation!

Nice place to be ... even if you're only fishing

I've never seen that first lure. Mind telling what it is?

Thanks for the report

No problem Bill. It is a Rapala F-9 Purpledescent

ON TOUR WITH SANTA FE!

Baitcasters..... trolling motors..... front seats...... Hawaiian shirts.
You goin' pro on us Eric?.....

Another awesome report Big E. Thank you!

See you at Legends III

Thanks Don Dana!
I felt like a Bass Pro for 1 day only! Now I'm back to reality

Looks like spotted bass. Nice job.

Thanks Cappo! These fish were aggressive!

What an awesome report Eric, looks like you could offer a guide service by the looks of it!

Thanks for sharing the slay session,

Guide service? No way! I'm just trying to look good doing it
Thanks TD

I like the way you got you have the boat set up. Too bad about the guide trip, but looks like you made the best of it.

Thanks G-Fish! I'm really starting to prefer this boat to my Portabote!
Hope to see you soon!

Showin' 'em how it's done Rapala game style Son!
Very nice E. Way to go rackin' up them crank and jerk fish!

BTW! This was my first time catching a fish from the front of the boat, while using the trolling motor and using a baitcaster!

Multi-tasking! Whaaaaat! I can't even figure out how to catch one sitting on an anchor. HAha.
Great read as always. Sound like a blast, man. Who needs a guide with you behind the controls.

Eric, Who needs a guide ? You the Man.

Nice report and congrats on all the bass.

Its funny , people up there eat the bass. I bet with the cold water they would taste good.

Thanks for sharing.

Man those Spotties are a pretty cool looking bass! Nice markings. I remember when our Lake Perris used to have them.

Eric, thanks for sharing pics from your vacation. I'm especially impressed with the quality of the pictures. What camera are you using?
I've also got to say that although you didn't get to make it out on the guide trip you did very well!
I'm looking forward to seeing you next week at the legends and I want to hear more about your boat.

Yaah Man! What a thrill to actually coordinate the management of the trolling motor, while casting and reeling. All new to me!
Indeed it felt just like the Rapal game. Those lures are the Rapala's that I first bought in '05 after playing the Rapala fishing game. First time catching fish with these lues.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you sir! The water was so clear that I could see down at least 15 feet. So I bet the fish were frsh tasting. All catch & release on this trip though!

Were those Spotties? They were definitely friendlier than the Salt Water Spotties when I put my thumb in their mouths.

Thanks Pontoon! I felt so blessed. All things just semed to clieck for me on this trip, once I got over the guide trip.

I use a Canon Powershot A540. I just point and click so it is all Canon

See you at Legends my friend!
