It was great to be back in the boat again and see all you guys. Great turnout! The boat with the running lights was crazy!

I was excited to fish but have never done well at Berryessa so my expectations were low. I knew that the cove was going to be packed so I braved the wind and went down the cove to the right. Skiers cove I think. It was white capping straight down the cove the whole day but I was alone. I started on the rock wall about 100 yards down. The first cast to the wall I was taught a lesson in using 6lb test on my drop shot. The bite felt really strong and once I set the hook it took off! Just as it got close to the boat it took another run and snapped. I was crushed but after seeing Dan catch his first two and that one I knew they were bitting. i moved down the wall and saw fish on my graph and dropped to them. I got my first fish and it was a chubby 3.5 largie. i bounced back and forth from side to side fishing with my back to the wind all day and was catching quality fish but just could not get the last one. I am happy with top 5 for my first tourney of the year and I cant wait til the next one. See ya there!
