Pretty quiet on here. Took my little boat to our little lake. And we have a castle

Nice, judging by the looks of that belly and tail, must be a recent spawner?
Where is that pretty little lake with all that water in California (asking for a friend )?

It's a private lake, boat launch wise, in Watsonville. We have access through our rod and gun club. Looks full but at least 3-4 feet down. Another few weeks and launching may be rough.. As far as spawners, I did get a few still guarding fry.

Thought at 1st was pinto lake.
Use to fish it when I was stationed at Fort Ord.
My grandkids would love the castle.
Nice fish

Only a long stone's throw from Pinto. Love Pinto! Beautiful lake and big fish.
