New Melones 12-11-10

Patrick and I may be going this coming Saturday. Not sure of which launch yet (49 or glory hole). 49 launch you may need wheels. If anything thing like last Saturday; slow troll 1/6 oz hardware with no weight was working for 15-16" trout... some of which had to be hold overs due to crazy fight. I look to 1) toss small jigs in coves under cover using slider bobber 2) drag deep diver or weighted rapalas in cover to entice a brown trout. It usually 730 am launch. Ill have my radio on 69.

Maybe this round we will find something over the 16" range

IN, maybe with others as well.

Ok , new humminbird 383C hung , yaks strapped down , new line on the reels , new Thomas Bouyant spoons in the tackle bag  . My son is bringing the tin can with 2 buds.  Is it Saturday yet?

Right on Patrick!

Were launching Glory Hole. I'll probably show up around 6:30 to poke around the tires and house boats area for crappies and trout till Patricks crew arrives around 9.

I need to stay out of tackle shops:



Impulse buy! Think vertical jigging with work for anything? Im have to try hitting those pockets of fish to see what they are.

Kids in a candy store.  Nice, hope you guys wack the heck out of them...

I'm planning on heading up there for some afternoon fishing after hunting the morning. If you guys are still around maybe we'll see you OTW, I'll be in the T13 with the peeling camo rattle can job 

Where are you hunting 1st?

got an invite to a private pond, mostly jump shooting, mostly honkers, we'll see though...

Chryss and I are going to Glory Hole in the morning, should be there around 9:00

Hopefully we'll make it out there, but it will be later...

thinking sleeping in, pancake circus , and hopefully a noonish launch

good luck out there.
