Mead 4-12-14

Madi was feeling better this morning so off we went. Got launched and out to the spot I really wanted before sunrise and it was on as soon as the TM hit the water. Not quite as good as yesterday but yesterday was overcast and I had the spot to myself. Not so lucky today... UB tournament. The same one that got us a month ago or so when we went to Mohave for the first time in a year. Betting the same turnout so 50 or so boats on the lake hitting every good spot there was. Where we were at we had the area I wanted pretty well covered since it wasn't that big and we were there first but... I could of made a small cast and hit 3-4 boats behind me and on the sides once they made it up there about 30-45 minutes after us. They were everwhere and any decent cove had 5-8 boats in it at a time. We stayed put until I figured it was time to move on after several hours and many fish (I think we got 16 out of that first cove). Madi was the only one I seen that caught anything worthy in that initial cove we were in... 4.05 pounds on a Texas rigged worm.





I figured she had the big one for the day after that one for sure... But a big old 5.35 pounder happened to like a crank I was tossing later on in the day. Verily landed her. I didn't have a good hook set and only one point of one treble was in her. Madi got 'er done with the net though. The crank did fall out in the net!



A nice sized scrapper caught just after the one above on a shakey head.



We landed 24 and were off the water by noon. Madi started to not feel good so called it a day. The wind was starting to pick up anyways.
