Father's Day at Del Valle

The short and sweet:

Arrived 6:15, 1st fish by 8 and 5th by 11:30, all on grubs between 22' & 35' deep.  Smallest 15", largest 17".  Mayhem with everybody and there brother out.  Will post pictures tomorrow.

Didn't see or hear from GB2 or flyyaker.

Sounds like a great day Michael. Love the post too... no bull and a lot of meat.

hey,Michael -
sorry to miss you, especially since i saw your post that you really wanted to go to Paradise instead of DV, but stayed with the original plan on our account.  Even more sorry we didnt connect since it sounds like you really found the fish.   Way to go!  Glad you got into some good fish.   

I got to DV a bit late today and made my way up the west side fishing a T8 sinking line with a clouser and leach dropper.  I fished the narrows area also by the steep bluff where I caught a striper last time.   Later, i fished the cove to the right beyond the narrows.    No fish for me, so i left around 230.    I was in a yellow Prowler 15.  There were sooooo many kayaks on the water today, its quite possible we passed each other without knowing.

I dont have a VHF radio yet so unfortunately couldnt call you.   Its on my shopping list.   I ran in to GB2 (Scott) and his family and i know he  tried to contact you by radio.   We thought maybe you couldnt make it today.   
Hope to hook up with you next time!


Scott -   Good to see you again today!   It was a pleasure meeting your family and seeing Molly again.

Thanks for the report Michael. Good to hear you had some decent action this
morning. Looking forward to the pictures.

Launched at 1030, OTW at 130. Pulled plugs for nada but had a blast with the family. Had a nice shore lunch with Flyaker in the narrows. Molly had a good time swimming in the warm water. Called Michael on 69 a few times but he was too busy catching fish.  Life is good.

Enough is enough...Michael, we're getting you on the salt ASAP! Looks like a perfect fathers day!

Ditto.  I see it as my personal mission.  Let me know when Mike and we'll make it work, you are ready young jedi.
