Congrats Dave, you slayed. Today was a good day for me also so i will put up the report. I fished the windsor ponds, 1 in particular. I have been fishing it a lot lately and it's just been on fire, a 15 lb limit out of there is the average without a kicker but today went a little better. I got in the water at about 2 and planned just to do as much flipping as i could, i started off flippin a black/blue flk tube, and after about 30 minutes i got my first fish, 5 lbs 3 oz. No more fish on that bank, kick over to a long peninsula/island. Right when i get over to it i started flippin a sweat beaver, first flip 4 lbs 8 oz. 5 more feet down catch one about 2, didnt bother weighing it. Get to the tip of the point where the trees open up into this green vegetation, something like hyacinth, and hook a fish but it gets caught up in the plant and shakes off, throw back in to the same area, 3 lbs 15 oz. Still on the same point flipped into the combo of the hyacinth and timber, and get popped on the fall, tried to get it up and in quick, but it was a bigger fish and was able to get its tail back in the water right infront of me and dove pulling about 10 ft. of drag below me and under me, which was good because it was now in open water away from the wood and was able to net it, 7 lbs 9 oz. my new pb at that pond. Right on the back side of the point in the sticks and hyacinths again flipped 2 fish and lost 3 because of the hook getting caught in the hyacinth while pulling the fish up. One of the fish i caught there was about 2 lbs, and the other went 5 exactly. Had to kick back and while kicking back along the biggest field of standing timber, i was making little flips and got popped, another chunky fish about 2 lbs. then 30 ft. away from where im getting out, i flipped to the timber, went to hop it but felt a fish there, and set the hook hard, felt like i was setting into one of the trees, but instead it took off right when i hooked it and started peeling drag before i could think of what was happening. It was making runs, then i would pull it in and over the tree trunks, then make another run and this went on for about 30 seconds, and i got a quick net on my new pb for that lake 9 lbs 14 oz. This just topped off the day and was relieved to finaaally get a bigger fish out of this pond, i have witnessed bigger fish caught but had lost every good one i had hooked in the thick cover. I am almost positive though, that before the water level starts rising at this pond i will pull a bigger limit and a bigger fish out of here. and by the way the weather couldn't have been better, hardly any wind and 65 degrees. total weight went 32 lbs 2 oz. and has been the 2nd limit over 20 lbs in the last month here.

Carson, you sure that 9 wasn't one of those big carp we always see. Just kidding dude. Sounds like you had a blast, call us up for a fish sometime.
Go big or go home.

Ya know, I fished the San Diego lakes in their hey day of the early 80's and a lot of waters along the west coast all the way to Seattle. But nothing can compare with the quality of bass fishing and the diversity of fishing in general that we have in Sonoma. They call Louisiana the "Sportsman's Paradise". "They" have never lived here.
