I fished the Future Pro Tour event at Berryessa on Saturday and had a good finish with 17.04 pounds. The pattern that me and my partner Josh Parris ran was bed fishing and catching shallow fish in spawning areas. We caught all of our fish in the cove between Big and Small Island.

We threw weightless senkos blindly in about 1-6 foot of water and kept our eyes open for beds. The fish would generally just start swimming off with the senko and if we found a bed fish we threw a variety of baits to make it to bite. The fish are really starting to move up and with more warm weather on the way there should be tons of beds soon.
