Sat I Met my Friend Steve in Riverdale at 4 am.Steve got us to Round Valley in no time ;)

We signed up for the RVTA tourney at 5 am.At 5:30 am we launched the 16 ft Monark Viper :D

Steve started up the 9.9 & off we went :)

The 1st Drift I caught a 20" Laker and after that it was slow !

Steve made a move and we dropped anchor and for the next 5 hrs we caught 2 other Lakers up to 21".

At 1 pm we went back to the ramp & called it a Day !

Sun I met Steve in Riverdale at 4 am.1st stop non sponsor for Live Bait.

After we picked up our Bait Steve got us to Merrill Creek in no time ! We met up with Robbie (aka Fishon1982) and we
launched the 16 ft Monark .Once I helped Steve Launch I helped Robbie Launch.

We pushed off the dock and set up on the 1st drift.Within minutes I was hooked up with a Laker.1st laker was 23".We stayed on the same drift and boated 3 other Lakers and a few stockie Browns.

At 12:30 pm we called it a Day !

Good times !!!

Nice haul !! With those flat calm conditions you should think about double anchoring and live-lining.

Nice catch guys, was at Merril creek on sunday also. I took my son and my grandson fishing for fathers day. We got four or five lakers and a rainbow, the biggest was the rainbow 18 or 19 inches. Not a great day as far as fish go, but not bad and any day fishing with your boys is a great day.
