Club hits a red hot
Cachuma for less than red hot fishing
The 5th event of the 2008 CBC circuit took
place at Santa Barbara Counties beautiful Lake Cachuma the weekend of May 17th and 18th, with 10 teams
showing up for the competition. To
say the least, conditions were
tough. Several teams did not get
started until after 8AM on Saturday due to quagga mussel inspections. Add to this a full moon phase, a huge algae (or possibly brush fire
runoff) bloom, and air temperatures hovering in the
100 degree range, and you have a
recipe for a tough tournament.
It
was certainly fortunate that club members voted to weigh 12” fish at this event
as many fish under a pound hit the scales. Taking first over the two days were Mike Lander and David
Sanchez with nine fish totaling 11.77 lbs, led by Mike’s 4.15lb event big fish. Great job guys!
Taking 2nd were
Victor and Marcia with nine fish totaling 7.65lbs. It looks like success continues from that Stratos boat! Great job!
Finishing 3rd were
Mark P. and Bruce P. with five fish weighing 4.59lbs. Great job guys under very tough conditions!
Without
a doubt, the highlight of the
weekend were the incredible Carne asada tacos grilled up by chef Sanchez. David grilled up several pounds of the delicious meat both
Friday and Saturday night, complete
with all the trimmings. Awesome
job David!
Don’t forget, members are invited to stay afterwards
at our next club meeting to hash out next years club tournament schedule. If you want a little say about where
you’ll be fishing next year, that
will be your chance!
Our next tournament is at
Piru on June 15th, with
a non-boater fee of $30. Boaters, make sure your
vessels are clean and dry before
you head to the lake!
Thanks to all of those who
helped out with the last FOCL BBQ. Your next chance to help out will be this coming Friday, June 13th, starting at about 5PM at the West
Ramp.
