I fished for her off and on all day long, but could not get her to go on any of my normal big fish baits (trout lures). Finally at about 5:30 pm I started thinking >>> If this fish is acting like a spawning fish, I am going to fish for her like I would fish for a spawning fish. I put on the tiny Castaic Shad, on medium-light gear, with a 1/4 oz worm weight on the line, made a cast, and hopped it to "her spot", then twitched it rapidly. The first time she acted excited about it ! Second time she hit it and got one tiny hook of the number 4 treble right in the bone on her lip. </B></div> <div> <B>  Can't wait for my 17 plus ! :-)</B></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="489" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 256 WIDTH="139"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="256" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="139" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="78965fa0.jpg" border=0 width="357" height="250" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 33 WIDTH="139"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="33" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="139" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="339"><div>    <B>This is Patrick, with a long lean fightin' machine !
