4/10- Headed to SD River but.......

Post by VinnyBass »

It was 7:30am and I just started to head out to the SD River. As I was driving down the freeway, I suddenly thought why not just keep going and head up to the lake...I mean pond of D & K. I know it was crazy as I would get a
real late start, but what the heck! On the water around 8:30am,missed the early bite and picked up a small bass before running into one of the D & K locals, @Fisheromen. Of course I had to chat fishing with him. He probably wish he had a bigger drill drive to speed across the lake, but he was kind enough to let me complain a little about how shallow it was etc. Anyway I ventured off to a few spots(you can see the whole lake basically because it was so low) and picked up a couple more clones. Then went over to a rocky area and stayed there the rest of the morning. It was very humbling as 3 straight bass broke me off especially with a guy fishing close by who saw it. I was using straight braid but the bass know the rocks were the answer to freedom. I finally started to land bass in between a few others coming unbuttoned and landed my biggest bass of the day at 5.25lbs. I ended up with 10 bass and wished I had planned to go there in the first place and arrive for the early bite, but I still had fun. Poor @Mcfish was not able to make it today as he was nursing a hang nail or did he hurt his ankle jumping up and down after Bogaerts hit a walk off grand slam in extra innings last night to give the padres the win? Either way, wish you a speedy recovery. :-)
