San Pablo Reservoir 10/21

Greetings All,

This is my first post so bear with me.  I took my new used trident 15 (thanks Finaegelin!) over to San Pablo Reservoir last Tuesday to try it out.  I have years of canoeing experience but am relatively new to SOTs so wanted to get to know the handling and nuances as well as hopefully catch some fish. 

Tried deep trolling some rapalas in the main channel near the dam for a while then drifted along the western side to the pines. No luck. I then posted up north of the big slide area and tried for some cats but as well saw no action. Downtrodden, I began hoisting the anchor and realized I had latched onto something large.  Knowing my luck I was pretty sure it was gonna be a corpse but when it reached the surface I found myself the new owner of a Minn Kota Endura 40 trolling motor with a Garmin transducer attached.  Doesn't look like it had been down there too long. I am going to try to take it apart and clean it this weekend then let it dry for a month or so before testing it.  All in all a fun day!

Cheers,
Diego

Kool,

They just planted "Lightening Trout" in SPD…  that would be different...

Awesome.   If it doesn't work, l'll buy it.  I need the mounting bracket.
