Mashpee-Wakeby - First Club Tourney Of 2011

We had our first club tourney on Easter weekend. It was on Saturday, of course, with all the delightful weather that came with it. I ended up fishing as a co-angler as I haven't had a chance to get my own boat ready for the season.

Mashpee-Wakeby is a large, clear Cape pond. Very limited shore structure to be found. Weather was in the high 40s to low 50s, with 25 mph wind out of the SSE. Water temps were around 46-48 for the day.

We started out fishing around the far island, thinking the fish might stop and stage around there. No dice, not even a nibble. After spending 45 minutes to an hour there, we fished our way around a point and into some cover from the wind.

We ended up on a large 4-5 foot flat, and pounded the area with jerkbaits and jigs. An hour later, my boater picks up a nice largemouth on a black/blue jig while dragging it over the bottom. He then promptly hangs that jig in a tree and loses it. Shortly after, I feel some life and set the hook on my only fish of the day, a 2.5 lb smallie while draggin a brown/green pumpkin jig.

We then spent a good while trying out different parts of shoreline, but the bite seems to have shut off completely in the areas we can remain steady in.

My boater ends up picking up one more random fish off a lone dock on the jig. This fish was enough to put him in the money.

We end up pulling the boats a few minutes early. After the weigh-in, we fire up the portable grill and have some April shower hot dogs to round off the day.
