Tournament Report: A little cool in the morning, but developed into a gorgeous day to be “on the water”. Thanks to Darwin’s great idea for location, we experienced a fairly good ‘bite’, which made a nice return from my fishing ‘hiatus’. A very enjoyable dinner after the weigh-in at the Orwood Café and the company wasn’t too bad either J

It was a gorgeous day in the Motherlode at Don Pedro. A good bite going on with everyone bringing fish to the weigh-in J
Mario Jorge once again put together a winning pattern resulting in 1st place and winning options with five fish for a total of 11.81 lbs. Some of his “mojo” must have ‘rubbed off’ on me, his co-angler, because the “big fish” of the tournament decided to accept my offer of a free ‘boat ride’ J, weighing in at 5.11 lbs.

A pleasant January day in the wine country that was definitely warmer than the week before when Darwin and I wondered what we were doing freezing our butts off early in the morning at Berryessa J
Mario Jorge put together a winning pattern resulting in 1st place and winning options with five fish for a total of 11.81 lbs. Mike Barnett landed a beautiful smallie at 3.78 lbs. for the “big fish” win.
And to repeat my closing from December’s Calero tournament, I enjoyed the time ‘on the water’ with everyone, even if the fish decided to ‘boycott’ my ‘offerings’ L

Saturday, January 21, was the first South Bay Club Challenge tournament between Gilroy Bassmasters and Santa Clara Bassbusters. Each club held their own team tournament and the combined weight of the top ten teams from each club was used to determine the winner of the inter-club tournament. Santa Clara Bassbusters' weight of 38.71 was outpaced by Gilroy Bassmasters’ winning weight of 43.18 pounds, ensuring the tournament plaque’s first year residence is with Gilroy Bassmasters J
Bassbusters provided tournament pictures and a great video of the weigh-in. The weigh-in video is available at the following URL: 1st South Bay Club Challenge.
It was a great time on the water with the Bassbusters in a friendly competition that we look forward to on an annual basis. There is also some interest in a summer inter-club tournament with a BBQ after the weigh-in. Let’s see if we can make that happen.
