Forebay Fish n Chill Feb 19 - 21, 2010

It was A great hookup and cool to see someone come from Reno to fish n chill!  ..Great meeting you Tuichub. The food was good the company was OK and the weather was fair.Had A friigin blast until th MOOCh ran into my friggin elbow and hit my funny bone! .. Cant wait to do it again.. Oh I was probably on the water for around thirty minutes alll weekend. ...The chilling was great. Until next time......Andy

...rumor has it that our beloved fry chef will be denouncing NCKA and will now be a part of the Monterey Bay Tridents......

what a tool!!!!! You should be seeing all his rod/reel gear in the classified section soon! 

Looks like a great time for everyone there!  Sorry I didn't make it but it's Jed's fault    Thanks for all the reports and pictures guys.

Thanks everyone for the posts. It's been awhile since I've been out but I always enjoy reading about those who are able to. Great hookup this weekend with a bunch of yeahoos that I enjoy fishing and spending time with. Both Jacob and Joel made it to the Central Coast Section (CCS) Wrestling Championships which we attended this weekend. Now that wrestling is over it's time to tune up the yak and get in some paddle time

Andy, hope your elbow is going to be OK. I should have warned you that "Mooch" is one bad ass . But, he's loved in our family

It was cool hanging out with the Forebay Crew. Some highlights of my weekend in addition to the great company, food, etc....

- Nasty Wind
- FishMaster1 vs. Mooch MMA style sparring
- I broke Andy's Chair - I owe you a chair Andy. Will give you a new one on the next outing

Here's some pics.

Notice Mooch's Round House Lightning Fast Right Hook that barely missed Andy..

More pics.

who the Faulk said there are NO TREES there?!!!!!   I see big ones!
that is a sweet site.....i like the fact you guys can still have a goodtime in my absence....i knew i'd feel left out(after seeing the pics), even though i could not make it.

I had a great time out there. Thanks for hooking up the group site Bill. We missed you   OK, Mooch missed you the most. He kept wandering around the camp, looking for his little spoon, but Andy filled in admirably.
Too bad it was so dang windy on Sat. It was blowing 20-30kts and the warning beacon was flashing red all day. Thankfully it didn't rain though. And the accommodations were incredibly nice! The group site had 4-5 permanent structures w/tables & BBQ & firepit and the lawn was perfectly manicured all the way to the water's edge. Mooch I shoulda brought a soccer ball to teach you how to play futbol! Because that grass was plush! And flush toilets, quarter showers, paved walkways, an amphitheater/rotunda...we should definitely consider this spot for future functions.  

Andy, hope your elbow is going to be OK. I should have warned you that "Mooch" is one bad ass . But, he's loved in our family

Ben- That's not as nearly as bad as what Andy did to Mooch at the campfire.  Andy drew first blood.  Hehehe.  It was quite funny after the fact. 

Here are a few more pictures...


They were starting breakfast when we got there at 10:30 am!


Just chillin...


It looks really nice out there, but what you cant see is that it was so windy!

I showed up Friday and was introduced to the gang. Thanks, guys you really made me feel welcomed.  Andy gave me a ton of tips and locations to try.  Saturday turned out to be a little breezy, I headed north and wasn't able to get a bite.  On Sunday, I headed south and was able to land two stripers and had another two hits.

Sunday sunrise.


Small but my first striper.


A little larger one.


Again thanks, I'm looking forward to fishing with everyone again.  If anyone is out my way (Reno) look me up and I'll be happy to show you some of the lakes in my area.  I'll be fishing both Tahoe and Pyramid for the next few months.

The Medieros camp site has no trees -  that was the site we were originally gonna use. Pat / Sin Coast did some scouting and found the better one. I personally never knew it even existed.

Great find Pat

I see beepstik!

Did Mooch get a haircut???

A busted shin at Sonoma, and a fat lip at the Forebay...  what's next???

Nice pics, Joel.

Thanks for sharing with those of us who were otherwise occupied.

I would have loved to try some of that fried striper.

I was thinking of you guys on the drive back from Tahoe.
Excellent coverage of the weekend haps!

Dear Alaska,
Be afraid...be very afraid...

WTG on the beautiful striper Pete. Almost rare now you see perfect stripes like that one you caught.
