September Meeting

Our meeting got off to a roar as always we had Jeff Jue share some of what he found to be working along with some of our other members as well. Personally I found none of it to work but that’s why it’s Castaic. Our next tournament will be held at Pyramid lake this coming Sunday Oct. 17th.  Lake opens @ 7am this will be a launch and go start with weigh in at yellow bar dock @ 3pm we are no longer in the 6 hour rule.
For those of you that have perpetual plaques from years past that have room on them for please make sure you bring them to Thursday nights meeting. We need to get them to the engravers to add this year’s achievement to them. Right now we are looking at our banquet being on December 19th location to be determined.

Tournament Results

Well the Manny Nunez Memorial Challenge Tournament went off with out a hitch 7 different clubs 38 boats total from all over so cal showed up and fished a very tough bite at Castaic Lake. Top honors for the day went to 911. Our club ended up in what I recall as third place. Seemed like most anglers got their fish early and then struggled the rest of the day. I would like to thank all those who jumped in and help get things going during the weight in and getting the BBQ started. Special thanks out to Mike’s wife Donna for her help.

The end of another year is drawing near. We have accomplished a lot and the Club is still growing with the addition of new members. Next year will be interesting with us trying something new in the June and December tournaments. This will mark the first time for the Club fishing Castaic Lower Lagoon. This body of water holds an extraordinary amount of large bass. We are looking into events that will include fun for the whole family. Start making plans to set aside December 19 for our annual awards banquet. Please remember to bring you plaques from last year so that all the spaces can be filled in. For you new members, plaques will be handed out that will have plates attached on them for any tournament finish in the top 4. You will also receive a plate if you caught big fish in any month.
See you all at Thursday’s meeting,
Mike
