found some more big 11s @ LP 04 18 19

Pre fished for a family outing tomorrow - unfortunately it got postponed. Manage to find some quality fish casting to staging fish but found some toads on the troll - 4 CNBGs in the 11" class. Lake is getting ridiculous with the boat traffic and jockeying around for position - plus I don't want people to see what I'm doing... Lake level is stable and the surface temp is 64*F+. Most of the fish are coming out of 24 FOW.

Beautiful fish!

Big, beautiful gills. That's what I want to see. Do the trolling rods have longer handles in the rear section? The JDM rods I use have shorter handles and look more like the casting rods in the last picture but are 7 foot long or more.

Makes my heart skip a beat! :biggrin

JJJ - yeah they are a little bit longer - not too comfortable for a lot of casting. The higher end rods are much lighter so lots of casts isn't a big issue. The Blue Bird is a European rod used for canal fishing.

Great fish, make a workin man jealous.

Nice catch as always, lots boats out here also. It is that time of year, Bass tournaments, fish spawning and water warming fast.

very nice fish

I bet they are fun to play with no doubt .
congrats on some nice ones bro

thnx for the comments guys

How far down have they been in 24 fow? How much bigger is the lake now compared to four years ago during the drawdown? I'll see you in a few days, probably won't get much sleep Sunday night.

where are you in CA and love your monster BG pics! always enjoy tangling with the big bucks on light tackle!

JJJ ~15", lake has almost doubled.
