Pyramid Report 01/06/2021

[BS]

Yowza , yowza, yowza.....................

The sun, moon, and stars aligned for me today and I made the trip to Pyramid.

I was so excited last night, I went to bed @ 6:00 p.m..

November and December was REALLY BAD for me, but alas, today it was finally MY turn to kick some butt !!!

Blasted off from home @ 8:15 at a nice balmy 22 degrees.

Pit stopped in Spanish Springs and arrived at the lake right around 9:30.

I was greeted by pals Carmen and Jimmy.
Man........it was good to see them both...........it's been about 10 months since we last "rubbed elbows".
We exchanged pleasantries and quizzed each other, then decided I should stop flapping my gums and suit up and start fishing !!!!!!!

In the water just before 10:00 with my SR, 'cator, and midge/balanced leech combo.
Within 10 minutes I hooked and landed my first fish.
It was a rat, but I could have cared less if it was a mouse.
Ten months of absence from the 'mid and I'll take anything !!!

I tried stripping for a while with no results and changed back to the 'cator.

The "bite" was really sporadic and seemed to come in waves..............schools of fish cruising the shoreline.

I stuck it out till 4:15 or so and decided to make it through Reno before the 5 o'clock rush hour.

So, my total for the day was 4 for 8.
The three other fish that I landed were "significantly larger than rats", but not more than 8-10 lbs.

So, I'm happy that I caught some fish, saw my Pals, and shared my day with them too.

The only downside is I'm suffering from finger cramps as I write this....................


For the ride home tonight, my small thermos filled with Dinty Moore Beef Stew with the appropriate seasoning and a couple of power waters.
For some reason the Beef Stew tasted better tonight than it ever has.................................


Dang Cutthroats........................................ ......
