9/28/11 Boca res... "after work"

I had some work to do in Reno yesterday and since it was so close on the way back home we decided to take the car and kayaks along for the ride.

Loaded up tuesday night for the early start.  Made it to Reno walked my buildings and was done 11:30.  I didnt check the clock but I think we got to Boca about  noon thirty.
 I'd never been here and didnt know what to expect, I was alittle disapointed that the water was so low.  But since you could park right at waters edge I didnt mind too bad. 

 

 There were a few jetskis out doing laps and another 2 boats out on the water.   and it was glass smooth.  I knew the fishing would be tough and didnt really get to read to much about tactics, and since I didnt have a downrigger I figured I just troll some hardware and see what happend.

 

the water had clarity to about 7-8 ft. because of algae bloom across the whole lake , and a good mud line from the lice and boats. 



Ended up peddling around the whole lake in about 4 hours.  There were lots of little fish jumping everywhere... some coming out as high as 3-4 ft. <-- thats a pretty funny sight. 
 The wind picked up around 4 so we packed it in and headed back to the car... Sails will be coming soon. It would have been a blast to make a couple runs at the end of the day.

  Scotty didnt have a care in the world...

Awesome guys.  Keep the pics of the adventures coming.  I see a GoPro in your future too.

great lake, few weeks back the water was at the max. Guess they are releasing water to make room for more this season. I prefer it like you saw it for great shaore access. The inlet usualy fishes well or anywhere back on that side. Ive had much better luck from shore too, but thats not as fun  is it Try prosser next time your there, no speed boats or jet skis there! Guaranteed fish

Thanks for the Boca update and pics.

Looks like a nice lake.  Thanks for the report and pictures FB.

I see a GoPro in your future too.

Have you been talking to GBG??   

Try prosser next time your there,

We'll do.

thanks for the report, love the pooch pic!!! and any high desert stuff is always neat 
late fall that lake does very well, koke swim up the creeks and are predated upon at the inlets by browns and macks 

Great pics and report. I have never fished there, but driven past tons of times; headed to Stampede. Sounds like I need to try Prosser as well.

Was just up at Stampede, went by Boca and Prosser...... They all looked the same pretty much.
Glad to see you guys are all over the place with those kayaks! The pictures looked great!
I agree with Wes, time for the GoPro! Your trips would be some great vids! And that pooch would be your star!

And that pooch would be your star!

 You don't have to tell him that !        Everybody is all  over him.
