Got up at 4:30 pm and started my drive to Lake El Capitan. On my way there, it started raining and the wind was picking up so I had a feeling that this was not going to be a fun day out in the water. El Capitan get pretty crazy when the wind is blowing, and the forecast for the day was high wind.
Anyways, met up with a couple of friends there at about 5:45 am. The wind was not bad when we got there and the rain seemed to have stopped. We launced the boat and started fishing a cove, we managed to hook 1 on a fluke.
We then made our way back to the north end of the lake. The water level was way up so a lot of sunk down trees around. We pretty much spent the whole day in this spot to get out of the wind and fished around the trees. We caught a lot fish tight to the banks on frogs, flukes, dropshot and flylined senkos. We fished from 6:30 am to 1:00 pm and managed to catch & release around 25 bass, all were solid fish between 2 to 4 pounds.
Fun day and definitely one of my better day at Lake El Capitan.
