Tony if for some reason they are not allowing wood fires, check if a propane firepit is OK and you guys can use mine. Sounds fun!

P.S

Sleeping bags? Oh that's a good one.
This is how we roll here in The Guild.
Shower after a long day fishing, furnace for those chilly nights, a real coffee machine in the morning, a toilet at 0300 when it's 30* outside.
You get the point funny guy.
I've had this baby everywhere. Mammoth, Kernville, out to the desert,
Willow Springs Int'l Raceway when I used to road race, etc.
Yup, the beds have flannel sheets on them. :)

Get you reservations in early for camping, like right now. The MLK tournament is there that weekend so it will be a little crowded. $24.00 to get in $10.00 for the tournament, plan accordingly.

OK kids, check it out...
I just called the lake to make reservations for next weekend, and they are not taking them at all. I spoke to a nice gal named Mel, and she said that they will have plenty of room, even with the tourney going on. They said that the weather is the reason for not accepting reservations, because if it rains, they close the access road to the campsites down, and all anglers must clear the lake.
I'm figuring that we're going to be there Fri. and Sat. nights, and fishing Sat. and Sun. Team Lollipop, if all things go as planned, will be rolling up Friday afternoon and checking in after 3pm, and setting up camp.
Not really anything more to report for now. Good times ahead amigos!

Cool, I'll put you on the list. I hope the weather works out I checked a couple of different forecasts and they're all different. Some say beautiful weather, winds less than 10mph some say 20 to 25....so I guess we'll see. Just have your gear ready to go.

Also... is anyone packing a generator? I dont have one but am looking for a way to keep my FF battery charged.

We should bring a 3000 W generator so we can fish some trout.

When you run out of ff juice, just keep fishing. They have done that for a few years before ff became popular.


Brian (son) and I will be there Friday and sat .night. Fish sat and part day on Sunday.

As of right now Tuesday 1:00pm there is a high wind warning until tonight at 10:00pm.

Also a wind advisory that will expire at 10:00pm thursday night.

I would say lets go for it, if the forecast on thursday says 15mph winds or less, anymore than that would just be a lesson in pure...PAIN. If it is more than 15mph I would say lets postpone until we get a better weather. From the forecast right now it looks good...but that can all change in a blink.

As far as food goes...Everybody should be responsible for their breakfast and lunch. As far as dinner I think we can all get together and share. Bring anything you want, lets cook it up !

When we do these trips we don't come out here to starve..that's for sure. We usually eat pretty good out here. This is what I usually do for food: For breakfast, bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, milk, juice...Lunch is usually hamburgers hotdogs, chips, drinks. Dinner is usually steak or pork chops/lobster/fish...potato/salad...stuff like that.

If anybody has any suggestions I'm open for them. Anybody wants to make something special for the group I'm good with that, or if everybody wants to just bring food for themselves that's ok too. Give me a heads up on your plans.

By the way I will be bringing my weber Q for grilling stuff, and my camp chef for cooking.

NWS and Accuweather say wind till Thursday night. Weather channel says til Monday of next week. Weather channel has let me down many times before.

As far as meals, I'm up for whatever the consensus is. I usually have a small quick breakfast(muffin, banana) and skip lunch on fishing days but not sure if my body can do that for two days in a row. I'll be the first to admit I'm not a very good chef but am usually good for side items and beer.

Just checked out the weather again and all the weather forecasts have backed off on the wind, it looks to be a beautiful weeknend with low temperatures in the low 40s and highs in the high 70s which is much better than last weeks low 20s.

Also called the office again this morning, and according to the lady that was there she said that camping is still wide open, first come first served.

All we gotta figure out now is how many lobsters drake is gonna bring? And how much beer robfish can fit in his trailer...?

Don't forget to bring some firewood guys! Looks like we'll have to have 2 or 3 fires going if everybody shows up.

It's gonna be fun! :luxhello:

We normally drag lures around like the f5 f7 cd5 cd7 firetiger rapalas also j5 j7 rapalas, owner mirashads work good in pink, daiwa scshiners work well also. I also got a load of worms thanks to mr mccrawls here on bwe. You need some just ask.

I usually fish in this order

1. Troll
2. Cast
3. Still fish
4. Steal fish

Then stick to what's working.

Cool Thanks! I need to pick up a few lures and some Power bait but I may hit you up on those worms. It looks like it may be a busy weekend there.... theres a Tournament.

I'll go first. What a great trip. You guys are quite the characters...a bunch of omegas (thanks for that term Ed) who have joined up together as Team Sewer...

So I'm mostly cleaned up at home watching the Niners win and I start flossing my teeth. I'm saying to myself..."dang, I'm yanking out quite a few chunks that still have some flavor to them."
Let's see, the back molars, left side had the seafood...Seared Ahi x two (dinner and lunch)...Smoked Albacore (60 pounder)...Smoked Rainbow Trout...Halibut Ceviche...
The back molars, right side had some meat...Roby's double-double special with cados and all the other fixins...pork chops...no wait, I was so stuffed that I didn't eat one of Tony's juicy pork chops. Hmmm...then what was it? maybe the marinated beef short ribs...
Bottom row, front side had Quail and Italian Sausage (a for real, tasty sausage made by a real butcher)...
And I can't forget the top row, front teeth...baked potatos, explode in your mouth Eclairs and other shortbreads/cheesecake looking thingees, chips, salsa, potato salad...maybe (5) days worth of meals shoved into one long dinner and one lunch...!

I've also got to mention this public service announcement: if you ever need a slump buster lure...and you've got no shame in your game...not too proud to ask for it...you know, when you're languishing in one of those day's where everyone's catching multiple fish except you(me)? PM Matt and ask to borrow the slump buster. Yes, it is rainbow in color. This lure is sure to get inhaled. It's rigged with special treble hooks that will grab a gill and also nail the roof of a trout's mouth so well that any chump will end his or her cold streak...word.

Lineup on saturday morning was like being at the airport or amusement park on a holiday. Got to the site and Tony, Eric, and Jim were there while the redsledteam were just pulling away to get their day fishing day started.

Fishing was okay on Saturday and bad on Sunday. I believe we took home just under 30 trout as a group with some nice ones thrown in there. I don't have any on the water pics since I forgot my camera at the campsite or camping pictures since we were having so much fun or eating.

One of the best parts of the trip was the heckling on channel 69. I'm really disappointed my radio ran out of juice the day before. Jim already highlighted on the food, there's not much to add there besides my thanks to all the guys especially Tony.

Here's a couple of pictures of Ron's catch. Weighed in at 6.44lbs

Team Sewer Irvine Camp trip was a success! Yeah we had food for days...that was the main attraction for sure! The fishing....definitely left a lot to be desired...but it was good food, good friends and cold beers and great weather.

Watching car after car get stuck in the mud...unstuck...then stuck again...was pure entertainment. We had a front row seat for it all...I guess having 4 wheel drive makes some people feel invincible...

To everyone that showed, thanks for coming hopefully we'll see you guys on the water again soon...and hopefully we'll put another fish and campout trip together...maybe in a different location...? we'll see.

Here are some pictures from the trip...I always wish I would take more pictures...but it seems I'm always busy doing something, mainly cook'n....

Oh now this is going to get confusing. A new Loudog to replace the one that has been MIA from Kayak fishing for some time (too busy killing predators and birds and such).


Looks like a fun trip, I liked Irvine a lot the one time I fished it for a PN tournament.

The best part of the trip was the strategy meeting discussed on Saturday night for next week's Dana Point fish-off. I couldn't believe how much detailed info was freely given out. But the Team Sewer guys asked me to cut in a song on top of the talk...sorry. Maybe a lip reader can grab something out of it...

Eating seared ahi until you hurt, following that with some apple pie and a mixed drink of choice.....


Man, fishing and camping life is soooo hard.:D


It's great fishing with all the knuckleheads.



Big thanks to Tony. The guy shows up early, brings most of the stuff, cooks much of the time, cleans the dishes and warms you up at night in your tent. (ask Ron:eek:)

Thank you Tony:cheers1::you_rock:




Next week: Dana Point.......
