Buzzed out to pyramid this afternoon. First time I'd been out this season. Yep, the lake is still there. Just looking out the window you'd have no idea of the season, the standard brown desert and blue sky. Got that normal "look at all the water, where do I start" feeling as well. Picked up the season pass ($75 again) and got it out of the way. New regs don't really change anything for me since I already used barbless, but won't be able to hit the nets come spawn time. No report from the store, just random fish here and there, generally slow.
Water was calm, cool and pretty clear, typical slow day conditions. Found myself at south nets and toted the ladder out... way out. Looks to be a foot or more lower than last spring. Dusted off the stripping basket and tied on my go to midnight cowboy / jawbreaker bugger and black w/ purple beetle. Shannon read a book while I got used to having a free and clear backcast. After a couple hours, I ended up with 1 missed, 1 hooked and lost, and 2 fish spotted. Not the worst day I've had for sure, and more than satisfied the test.
