We had a good turnout on a beautiful smoky Friday on Lake Berryessa for the last tournament of the year! Kind of fitting since the original tournament was canceled due to fire. Thanks to the 20 Teams that fished the 9th event of the Pasote Tequila & Berryessa Bass Tournaments Circuit for the 2017-2018 Season that was on July 27, 2018 and hosted out of Markley Cove. AOY race is shaping up to be between three to four teams with the TOC points going to decide AOY! We had an early smoky, cool & safe blast off with 3 flights, including 4 youth teams. There was no wind at the lake at blast off and a little breeze at weigh-in again. The lake is fishing pretty tough, with the weights being low and limits tough to get for some teams. Lots of teams struggled all day. In the Youth Division, First Place with 13.38lbs & 2nd Place Big Fish went to CJ Conder. In Second Place, Matt Dettling weighed a sack of 5.46lbs. Third Place with 2.44lbs went to Joe Rosen. The bite has been pretty tough unless you find a school or a few feeding! It’s all about timing now with a ton of bait in the water; you got to be at the right spot when the fish are feeding. You might see fish and bait on the graph, but they might not be eating! Teams reported catching better fish at 20’ – 40’ feet. Water temps are into the high 70’s to 80plus degree range with the water clarity fairly clear to murky. Teams reported catching their fish on Spoons, Shakeyhead, Jigs, Drop Shot, and Top Water. Most teams are fishing all over main body of the lake still. First Place went to Dan Sweat and Jody Jordan with a nice sack that weighed 18.89lbs and was anchored with a 5.27lb kicker for 1st Place Big Fish! Second Place went to JP Gano and Angelo Alorro who brought in a sack that weighed 15.40lbs. Third Place went to Joe and Jack Mariani with a sack that weighed 14.22lbs. With a Fourth Place finish & 2nd Place Big Fish, Bryan and CJ Conder weighed in 13.38lbs. In Fifth Place, a sack of 13.19lbs was weighed in by Mike Hitomi and Todd Ushijima. This is the Ninth tournament in a row that at least one of our youth teams has been in the money! Keep it up Youths – You are our FUTURE!
