Cali Cat Yakkers Fishing Report Friday 2 August 2019

[Remus]

Greetings to all,

I'm happy to report that Yakdat and myself had a really good day fishing the Cove in Calaveras Lake Friday 2 August. It has been a long time since we caught so many catfish.
Yakdat was non-stop pulling catfish after catfish with a total of 27 cats averaging 3-5lbs on chicken liver.
I totaled 9 catfish also in the 3-5lbs using shad heads.
We fished between 0700-1300, very hot by the time we left.
All fished were returned to the lake unharmed.

Is not the same without Rick and the rest of the gang.
I'll be there this Saturday.
Chicken liver beats Big Marv.

I went back to the lake this am 10 August and caught a huge 33 inch Redfish after going for a sleigh ride. The catfish are very active hitting tilapia heads and chicken livers. I totaled 15 catfish between 0700-1200.

You been after the reds and cats this year?
Heck of a deal with this covid mess, but hopefully we get through this soon. Hope you are doing well!

Jumbo, I finally updated my account. Yes Yakdat and I have been fishing every other week mostly on Fridays. Yakdat caught 38 catfish’s and I had 15 cats last 21 August 2020. Join us this Friday 28 August at the kayak launch. BTW I sold my Native Watercraft Mariner 12.5 and bought an Old Towm Sportsman 106 PDL . Smaller than my previous kayak.

Hey Harry, glad to see you guys carrying the torch, and it looks like y'all haven't missed a beat!
These 100* days keep me in the AC, but I guess you guys get off the water before noon. We could at least use some cloud cover, but even those days are rare.
Keep the reports coming!
Tight lines my friend!

Hey Jimbo is good to hear from you again. I don’t know what happened to the other Cali Cat Yakkers but Yakdat and myself have continued to fish the same hole year after year. You are right we stop fishing around 1pm before it gets too hot. Hopefully I’ll see at the lake one of these mornings.Take care.
