Shadow Cliffs / Pleasanton - Dec. 23, 2006 (PICS)

Hooked up with Janice at around 8AM.....the fishing was super slow....there were 3 boats that were trolling along with Janice and myself and I did not see any fish caught Still, the weather was very nice - over cast and no wind at all. Water clarity was very clear despite of rain during the past few days. I managed to convice 3 LMB to bite (all released). Got one jigging a cast master in 30 ft and the other two was caught trolling a shadrap right along a steep deep water bank. Janice got no love trolling but got to work out the kinks of her new Cobra Marauder

I was almost ready to break down and drift with powerbait but decided to stick with the lures -IMO:  just can't compare the feeling of landing fish with lures (trolled or casting) over powerbait 

Right on Mooch, Im ready to join you on a lake since the dinos got me figured out. Not ready to give them up altogether yet, but it would be nice to actualy catch a fish.

Right on Joel! Will probably hit Shadow Cliffs in a few weeks when they plant some more fish. Never been my favorite place because it is ugly IMO. Kayaking freed me from Powerbait although I still carry some with me.

Kayaking freed me from Powerbait although I still carry some with me.

I hear ya I still carry a jar - which I usually use when I park my yak on shore for a lunch break. But because I love to paddle around (rather than just sit still or drift) trolling just gives me the best of both worlds: fishing and paddling for exercise 

Good day out!   Nice Eagle shot Mooch! (i saw one but couldn't draw the camera in time!) SWEET hook with the jigged kastmaster!(I gotta comit to doing that when I see one sitting down there!!)

Thnx for the pics&port brudah!
