Sacremanto Salmon 8/12/12

Was planning on rolling out to the honey hole on the sac that we call the Salmon Hole this morning, but had some drama with friends and ended up staying up till 0300. When I woke up at 0430 I felt like crap and exhausted, so I rolled over and fell back asleep. 0513 I get a call from Ethan that I ignored and slept through, 0549 he calls me again, I woke up to it and told him leave me alone I'm sleeping, 0625 he sends me this picture.

Garrett's buddy Ethan got a nice striper on a spinner, but I slept through that one.

Then 0641 he calls me again, omfg

man trying to sleep here. He tells me His buddy Andrew got a 10lber and they need me to come over later to clean it. I told him fine I'll do it later, now leave me alone I'm trying to sleep!!! Then 0649 Ethan calls me again, his friend Cameron just lost one, That's great, I don't care I'm sleeping leave me alone, He finally said ok get some rest. Then 0650 Garrett calls me telling me everything that Ethan has already told me again. I'm not getting any sleep this morning so screw it out the door I went.

I arrived on scene at 0723 telling everyone how much I hate them for waking my lazy ass up just in time to get out here after the hot bite, but whatever I was up anyways. I tossed my spinners and threw a kwikfish out to see if anything would happen. Everyone else was throwing Flying C's. Not much happened for a while, then around 0825 Andrew all quiet in his corner Ethan saw him with some bendo action going on and he asked him "You got another fish man?" He said yea. Holy crap Andrew is gonna get his limit!

Andrew with his first ever salmon and his first ever limit all in the same day!

Smaller one weighed out at 11lbs and the bigger one was 16.

Left at 0900 to beat the heat and get the fish cleaned before we all had to go to work. I don't know what these guys are gonna do if they ever catch a fish and I'm not available seeing as none of them know how to fillet a salmon. I'm trying to teach them, but they don't want to practice on salmon cause they don't want to waist any meat. I'll teach them when we start hitting Amador again.

No fish for me today, but it was great seeing Andrew finally get his first fish and to top it off with his first limit, what a morning! Hopefully many more to come soon.

Till Then Guys
