I live in Cali, and unfortunately I put the fishing down for the winter, but went out today just for a bit of fun.

Nothing too great, I caught 5, 3 dinky ones, one 13in (weight not sure), and then this one, (weight not sure).

Caught the biggest one in the first 5 minutes of fishing. After that sun disappeared and it got COLD.

The bass below is the last day I went fishing in October. That was weighed and was 5.6lb

Twas fun for being on the water first time in months.

Congrats! Well done!

Alright!  Good catchin' young man 8-)

Dan

Thanks.

The 5.6lb was caught off a Banjo Minnow.  :

So I went to Berryessa today thanks to mudcatwilly. Landed 5 so-so fish.

Second I got there, I hooked one nice one, that snapped my line (stupidly using 4lb line).

Very next cast (I let my gf real it in, she caught a nice 2lbr.). Then the next 4 fish were only so so. Here's pics of the last 2 fish caught (Didn't have the camera for the others).

Thank you mudcat, everything you said was great help!

nice work
