Great turn out 12 people, including 3 new people. Karl's young partner brought in a 2lber. And while the rest of the field was skunked henry dover showed us how its done with exactly 30lbs of fish! He helped out a ton and was very open to help us. Me/mike went out in evening his Advice landed me 1 and broke off one just before sumset. A very fun time even tho fishing was slow. I know i learned a ton. Never fished in 60ft of water for bass before. And nice job gordy!

Very fun day even though it was cold.

Gordy, the 6'7" 15 year old fishing phenom, landed a 2-2.5 pound SM in about 45 feet of water using a drop shot.  Unfortunately the battery died on my scale so we never got to weigh him (new battery is now in and a spare in the boat).

Henry was nice enough to give us an on the water demonstration on fizzing with our fish so he would go back down again.

The first time Henry took me out was another cold day in late 2011 at a fish-in on Lake Sammamish, one of my first events with the club, and he caught a SM that needed fizzing and Angie captured it all in the below video.  Seems like every time I see Henry its a cold winter day and he's showing me how to fizz fish. 

Thanks Henry, it's always good to see you.

Wanted to thank Carl for doing an excellent job with the chili dogs and for continuing the tradition Dan Caffrey was famous for.  Nothing like having a few hot chili dogs, cooked off the back of a truck, with cheese, onions and all the condiments, and swapping stories with friends you've just been fishing with all day ! 

Fish-ins with the chili dogs afterwards is one of the many reasons this is a great club.

Thanks guys for a great fish-in !

Henry was full of knowledge that he was willing to share!  Great turnout for being early February!  I think sharing our event on the Facebook sites is a good idea!  I'm excited for next month already.

Also we will be welcoming Patricia and her Son Noah to the club as they filled out they're form at the launch...
Noah is the big fisherman with tons of familiarization with bait casters and is very proficient... with his equipment.. he took to instruction very well and look for him to be at every fish-in!!!
