I just realized that the fishing trip I am about to cover
was on the second day of winter… I originally thought it was still fall. Oh how
time passes. Looks like I owe you all a Fall wrap-up post!
Last Monday I took a quick trip up into the hills to try Lake
Amador for the first time. I met Mark from Northern California trout in Martel, got some coffee and hit the
lake. I have he
The lake had a nice layer of fog around with fairly low
visibility When we first arrived. A few minutes after we arrived, Yuki showed
up and we started our fishing adventure. I put out one rod with a nightcrawler
and the other
Yuki started things off just a while after he arrived. I
don’t care what mark says, that guy is okay! AND he isn’t as cursed as Mark
says either because he drew first blood and beat the skunk. After that all was quiet until the trout
plant came!
A truckload of trout was planted in the lake and I must say
it was one of the most interesting experiences I have ever had. The fish were breaking the surface every
10-20 seconds and on occasion even swimming right up to the bank! One of the coolest things I have ever seen.
Unfortunately even though we could see fish, they refused to bite our lines.
A while Mark got into his first and the last of the
afternoon. It was a nice 2 lb football shaped rainbow that I was able to net up
for him. That was pretty much it for the action on that trip.
Unfortunately I was skunked but I would have two more
attempts at getting over 300 fish in 2014!
Total fish: 0
