I had a great time fishin with you, John. Conversation was good, the weather nice, if only we coulda found some fish.
Hey ya'll, did you know John was the World Champion yo-yo player of '97! He put on a short show at the campground in the evening with a yo-yo that lights up. It looked like a bit of a fireworks show. :o :7 He did stuff with that yo-yo that I'd never seen before. Bravo!
OK, here's my report. I decided to run and went back to where I fished last year. I was a bit slow getting my boat in the water because of technical problems and the fact it was so dark. I couldn't see 6 inches in front of my face. By the time I got in the water, Fish JC had already beaten me to my 1st spot. And he rowed to get to it. :o I did get to fish a corner of the area and it produced a couple spots on the dropshot before I left it for Joey. But he didn't fish where I was. He stayed in an area about 20 yards long, ALL DAY. :P I moved around and tried some flippin'. I stuck a 2.5 largie and then proceded to farm a bunch of fish including one about 3 1/2 to 4. x( I got the bites I needed. I shoulda been culling by 7am. I just couldn't get a hook into 'em.
This was also the first time I fished Berryessa that I didn't catch a single smallie. Weird.
