After Oroville and Shasta, It Was Fun to Whack on Spots in Less Traditional Tourney Waters

This last weekend was the first one in some time that I was not sick, fishing or emceeing a derby on Oroville or Shasta. It was sure a blast to get out on our home lake (Rattlesnake Bar is open and 4 miles from the driveway) and catch some fish that aren't 1.2 to 1.9 lbs!
Rumor has it the Wild West Bass Trail is pondering adding Folsom to the Team Trail next year. The below pictures are Ryan and my votes for that. Of course ... if it were a derby we'd have never caught those fishing together. He'd have caught them without me ... but you add me to his boat and bad things happen ... bad things
We fished half a day on Friday and a full day in the rain and wind on Saturday. 24 caught on Fri and over 40 on Sat. Friday's limit was 15 lbs and Saturday's was around 17 and a half.
No it's not "LAKE X" but it sure can be a great place for a nice bag of spots (and smallies in this case). We actually only caught 1 LM in the day and a half.
