8th & 9th, 2001
October 14, 2001 Keith Thompson of Calcarpin.com and his brother Neil came up to M & M Campground on Friday and they really got into the fish. They caught so many fish Saturday morning that they lost count. Keith's biggest was a 23 pounder and Neil caught several in the 17 to 19 pound range. Mary and I showed up Sunday morning around 7:30am and found them both sleeping in their bivies after another night of action. Around 9:00am Mary hooked her first fish of the day, a hard fighting 15½ pounder. A short time later she hooked another good fish and then we all started catching. When Mary and I left at 3:00pm Keith and Neil had caught way too many fish to count and Mary ended up with 5 hooked and 3 landed including the 15½ pounder, I ended up with 9 hooked and 5 landed up to 14½ pounds. Click here for photos of the action. Keith and Neil are staying over another night so I'm going back down there tomorrow morning and will report back here tomorrow evening.

Keith and Neil caught a lot of fish throughout the morning. Neil caught a 24 pound 12 ounce monster, the biggest I have ever seen come out of Clear Lake so far and Keith caught a 21 pound 4 ouncer. Andy caught 2 about 16 pounds each and I only managed one about 17 pounds. Keith and Neil's combined total catch according to their count was a whopping 131 fish from Friday afternoon to Monday afternoon. Click here for photos including the 24.12 and 21.4.

November 4, 2001 Mary and I went to M & M Campground this morning for a little end of the season carping. It was a great session, especially for Mary, she caught 11 carp including a new PB of 18 pounds and a 9 pound channel catfish. I only managed 5 carp to about 15 pounds and 3 catfish from 12 to 16 pounds.
