The opener went pretty well. It was downright chilly Saturday AM, and the wind was really blowing, but we managed to locate some fish for the upcoming tournament. My partner Joddi caught this nice bass on Sunday while we were on a visit to the "proving grounds".
The U.S. Government has White Sands, Area 51 and Edwards AFB; we have Lake "X" that we call the proving grounds. It is a little lake that is loaded with bass, where we go to test out new equipment and techniques, along with potential lure and rod designs, prior to giving them a permanent place in the tournament boat. Plus it is a lot of fun to fish because the numbers and the quality of fish are so good.
So far it has remained our secret, hopefully it will remain that way.
Oh, by the way; for the record, I had the largest bass of the weekend on Saturday at just a little over 6 pounds. Dammned if I had the digital camera with that day though, so you will just have to take my word for it.
