Had a great week of fishing. Fished by myself,with friends,and with my brother Tom. Caught a bunch of nice Bluegill and finished the week by catching some Cally Reds. Me and my brother met up with Guide Harry Lamb who we have fished with a lot over the years. Harry can put you on the Reds for sure. We fished Cally from 7:30am till 11:30am and caught about twelve Reds. Kept a few for the grill and frying pan. The Bluegill were caught on a local creek early part of the week. Worms were used with a bottom technique. The Bluegill were holding in shallow water close to brush piles. The Reds were caught with both silver and gold spoons using down riggers. We caught most of the Reds in water 6 to 10 feet deep in coves. Fishing the great outdoors with family and friends. It just don't get any better! fish

Side Note: For those of you that do not live in the San Antonio/South Central Area. Cally is just another name for Lake Calavaras. thumb

Those are some good looking Reds Chuck cheers
How was the fight?

I love all types of fishing, by myself, with friends, but fishing with family is the best. My Dad is finally coming around and wants me to take him fishing, I can't wait!


Don't worry about the mule, just load the cart

Thanks Andrew for the reply. Yes Sir fishing with family is simply the best. I have fished a lot with both my dad and brother. My dad had passed away years ago but I got some GREAT memories fishing and hunting with him. Me and my brother have logged in a lot of trips over the years and have also made a ton of GREAT memories. thumb



Side Note: Those Reds are some great fighters. boxing Drag pullers for sure. taz If only I could use my ultra light tackle! hmmm

Great post and photos, Chuck. I had a feeling you'd get into some reds when you mentioned where you were going. That's good eatin'!

Looks like that was a good day. I've often thought of going to Calavaras but I've go too much surf and marsh in my veins. I always keep heading south. Thanks for the post.



I fish on a 14 ft piece of plastic.
