Last year's best and this year's goals

Post by AquaFish » Fri May 02, 2003 8:17 pm

Ok, what was your last season's best fish and what are the goals for you this year?

Last year... 20lb Barra, this year hoping for something larger up North.

Last season, I caught:

Albacore: 42 lbs
Bluefin: 67 lbs
Yellowfin: none :(
Yellowtail: 19 lbs
Salmon: 11 lbs
White Sea Bass: 23 lbs
Trout: 4.5 lbs
Bass: 5.75 lbs
Steelhead: none :(

This year, I'm hoping for an 80+ bluefin and a 6+ trout!

Hahaha, I knew someone might ask me that....

Okay, Brookie, I'll tell YOU and only YOU. Do not share this information with anyone you know or come in contact with! :P

There's a somewhat remote lake I fish 3-4 times a year in the Eastern Sierra called Lundy Lake. You may have heard of it. Just a couple of miles outside of Lee Vining near Mono Lake. It used to be an old mining village.

Anyway, there's a lure up there they sell at the general store called the "Las Vegas" lure. At one time or another, we've all caught 6-8 pound trout (Alpers) on this lure. We go up each year in the spring, summer, and again just before the season closes. Last year, my buddy caught a 7.5 and a 6.3 within minutes of each other on that same lure.

This year is all mine! :)
