Yuba - Pike now off my bucket list-sat-PAINTED ROCKS - Marathonman - 10-26-2013

Had a very enjoyable day with bassrods. We headed out early in the morn and fished a total of 6 hours and caught 3 pike and 1 18" walleye. Smallest pike 21" - largest 30" & 7 lbs. Water was very smooth. Found a 13" carp in its belly. Finally got the northern pike off my bucket list. Thanks Cliff!

I forgot. Cliff pointed out the reason why its called "painted rocks" and here is a pic. How anyone ever got up there way back when is beyond me.

Nice report. Those are some nice looking fish. Were you trolling or casting for them?

I was hoping to get back to yuba at the beginning of the week but now thanks to weather it will have to wait until friday next week.

That does it. I'm tying up some 12" carp streamers.

We cast. I used a silver rat-l-trap. Tasted great fut I had a hard time getting the bones out when I filleted it. It produced a lot of meat.

Yeah the Y bones do get in the way. I'll have to find that video I got that shows how to cut them out.

Nice fish! Congratulations. You want to be careful.......Pike fishing can be addictive.
Fished from 9:30 until 5PM sunday. Caught 2 northerns, 1 yardstick about 10 - 12lbs and a little squirt.
Glad you got to fish with Cliff.
