Filming On Lake Berryessa And Catching Big Strong Bass

We recently had the opportunity to get up to Lake Berryessa just outside of Sacramento California to do a little bass fishing and filming. There is a lot of time on the water, and sometimes you have to try to drop a line when you have the opportunity.

Sneaking In A Couple Of Casts

This trip we were out with Mark Lassagne and Will Doud-Martin of Bass Angler Magazine doing some lifestyle video work, product videos and how to’s. We fished Berryessa as well as the California Delta.

As I mentioned, you need to sneak in casts and drops when you can. This particular day I happened to be standing on the back of the boat while Mark and Jon were up front filming a quick product piece. We happened to be spooning and jigging when the fishing turned on.

Both Berryessa and The Delta are magical places, but when the big “B” turns on, it turns on!

Catching Berryessa Spots

Lake Berryessa is a lake known for great fishing. It definitely didn’t disappoint this trip. As I was standing in the back, trying to be quite while spooning, it happened. I jerk the rod up and it doubled over. Oops! I tried to stay quiet but the excitement finally got to me.

The Gear

We fished a variety of gear this week. The new Okuma Serrano, Helios SX and Cerros Rods were awesome! Those paired up with the Helios SX Baitcast Reel and you have a pretty incredible combo.

Conclusion

Well, like I said, I tried to stay quiet. Sometimes its harder than it looks.

I appreciate you all for checking in and watching my little video. Please do me a favor and subscribe to Davey’s World for more trip reports, gear reviews and other fun stuff.

See you on the water!
