#17, "May 22, 1999 Castaic Lagoon"


          

Jamon and I fished the Castaic Lagoon float tube tournament Saturday. There were about 70 tubers out on<BR> the lake with cloudy but calm conditions all day. The water was warm and I put one in the boat second cast<BR> on a pins minnow at 1lb-12oz. Jamon switched to the pins and nailed a 3-0 and a 1-12 before 7am along with<BR> 2 dinks and a trout which got off. That was it for the reaction bite and we didn't have much luck until 9 or so<BR> when I picked up a 1-2 on a hopkins spoon in the middle of the lagoon. Jamon kicked out and I picked up<BR> another keeper at 1-15 on a rattle trap. We saw a group of guys back where we launched and headed over<BR> to find out that a number of limits had been caught fishing 3-4" finesse worms in greenie weenie and<BR> cinnamon. We tried that and Jamon got an 11 incher. The worm fishing was so boring I kicked back out to<BR> the middle of the lake and got my last and biggest fish, a 2-12 on the rattle trap again. I wound up fishing<BR> one ounce out of 10th place and a prize with 8lb 6oz. They had some nice prizes for the top finishers but the<BR> raffle stuff was comedy with spiderwire, 5 piece fishing poles, and some killer el cheapo polarized barni<BR> sunglasses. Best limit was 14lb and some change on finesse worms. Big fish went 4lb 10oz. Most people<BR> caught fish and had a good time.
