My buddy Grant “Big Tuna” and I are going to fish our first local tournament this year. We joined American Bass and will fish their Folsom Lake tournaments. With Jacob arriving near the end of April I may have to skip one of the tournaments, but the other dates seem fishable. I really hope they reschedule the Memorial Day tournament because Memorial Day on Folsom Lake is a free-for-all with wakeboarders, skiiers, jet skiiers and every other ignorant water sport enthusiast. Folsom Lake is a zero-etiquette lake so you fish at your own peril on holidays.
Grant and I have a lot to learn on the water and hopefully these small tournaments will be a good classroom for bigger and better events!
