Hit up a local lake in Northern California last weekend. Targeted bass with some green pumpkin Senkos. Water was pretty clear with a slight breeze, which made for decent visibility. I fished solo, and it was definitely one of those days where patience was key. Managed to land a couple of 2-pounders, but had a bunch of missed strikes, which is always a bummer. Forgot my pliers again, so I had to do some interesting fish gymnastics getting hooks out. How's everyone else's luck this year? Any good reports around your area?
