Adventures in Granite Bay!
by Seth on Aug.05, 2009, under Travel
Last weekend, I once again ventured out to Granite Bay, CA to visit one of my best friends, Kevin Chafey. Like any weekend in Granite Bay, the agenda was jam packed with Wake boarding and Vodka-Tonics but I decided to add something new to the typical Granite Bay adventure, FISHING! Kevin is not a fisherman and wasn’t too thrilled when I announced that we would be taking the boat out in the evening to chase some fishies, but as a good friend he “sacked up” and got excited for our expedition. A good portion of my Saturday morning was spent browsing the map of Lake Folsom plotting our course to victory. I researched fishing reports and local fishing blogs. After the morning review and analysis, my plan of action was complete. Mr. Joe Chafey (aka Papa Joe), continually made comments about my expectations of our trip. In fact he said ,”I would get your hopes up Seth…I wouldn’t expect to catch anything in Folsom but I hear some people do.” Well as you can imagine, that was all the motivation I needed to make sure we caught some fish. Anyways to make a long story short, We launched the boat, enjoyed a beautiful sunset and I got to witness by Best Friend slam TWO beautiful Channel Catfish. Mission was accomplished = Fishes Hooked + Fishes Landed…..SORRY PAPA JOE!..LOL. I had a blast fishing a new lake and silencing the critics but the most joy I received that evening was, witnessing the joy and excitement on Kevin Chafey’s face as he reeled in his first fish…It was awesome. I hope he enjoyed it as much as I did. We will do it again soon. FISH MASTERS!!!!!!! Below are some pics from the whole weekend for your enjoyment….ENJOY!
Peace,
