Hopedale challenge

Team Jo-Jo:

Big Pablo & Big Rudy planned a trip for this Saturday, and Oneofthepack was supposed to join them, but my back had me down and out for the trip.

We had to choose our course of action and where we wanted to perform our art of fishing and catching. We had current intel from Big Pablo’s last trip to Hopedale, followed by Big Rudy and Oneofthepack’s intel from last Friday’s trip to Delacroix. Both trips were very productive with lots of action.

When I backed out of the trip, it became an easy call on where to go, as Big Rudy wanted to learn the route and areas Big Pablo was fishing out of Hopedale, so that’s where they decided to assault.

Reward & Comments from Saturday's Trip:

• They were out and about in Big Pablo's boat

• Location: Hopedale

• Timing: Early trip

• Bait: Live shrimp had some action, but Slat Strong Power Prawn accounted for 90% of the action

• Personal Best: They had a PB on the trip

• Navigation: Route run and areas fished were documented on GPS

• Catch: Pablo and Big Rudy caught about 125 trout. Pablo had a PB again with 76 trout, no reds, and several catfish. They only kept about 7.

Seems like Big Pablo & crew had a good trip and brought home some friends for dinner.

Good Fishing,

Team Jo-Jo & Oneofthepack
