The Roostertales Bass Club kicked off its 2016 season on January 9 at Canyon Lake. It was a cold day, little wind, blue bird skies, and water temps around 50 degrees. The water was stained, increasingly upstream. Sixteen boats fished. There were no limits weighed. Two boats brought in 4 fish. But it was a big fish day. Six fish over 5# were weighed. Congratulations to the team of Humphreys and Karl who weighed big fish at 11.12# and took first place with 13.29#. Congrats also to the Team of Asher and Asher who weighed 2 fish totaling 12.66#. Third place was taken by Peterson and Zahn with 10.97#. Fish were caught with typical wintertime baits but mostly spoons, large swim baits and A-rigs.
The Club’s next event is on Apache Lake- Saturday, February 13. Our meeting is at Bass Pro Shop (upstairs conference room located by the camping section) on Tuesday Feb 9, 7 pm. If anyone is looking for a great team club to fish, come to the meeting.
