Holy moly I done cotched me a Sholie!!!! Put in some work today. Finally able to hit the river. Ol wacky rig saved the day... Nothing like seeing the river nice and clear all week and then getting there and it was stained. Still was great to be on the water.
Also Brian Latimer what do I list the Sholie as for the tournament? I put it as a large mouth but I'll remove it if need be. Just let me know.
How's everyone's SUF tornament going?! I like this tornament format, I realy do. It prolongs the frustration that you have trying to cull fish for a month with what ya got to work with!! 😆 You hit all your best spots, ya probably have caught some of the same fish a half dozen times, but you do it because ya love it!! Plus, your puting into action the things that we are learning from one another, and being competitive is just flat out fun!!
Had a good day today, was trying to get rid of two 18" and was successful. I got really tuned into what these bass where doing today so I decided to weigh my best 5 to make it alittle more of a challenge for myself. I did alright, through some bass back before I started weighing them that would have put me over 17lbs I'm sure, but just a good fishing day!! Even got a crappie and a pike that I had already caught earlier in the day and the second time got hooked real bad so its on the menu, most likely tomorrow's supper!! Keep on fishing SUF people! Have a great 4th of July weekend!!
INDIAN LAKE didn't disappoint. 11lbs again but man did I have to work for it. A 3.10 and a 3.25 for kickers. Both on a 1/2 Oz spinner bug. Going to explore new water tomorrow hope to add a couple more spots to the roster.
She’s been in the trees for the past 2 years but she’s cleaning up pretty good for a 39 year old boat . got the old gas drained fixed some wires. clean the carbs and a new water impeller and I think she’ll get me on the water
This was the water temperature when I fished with Nathan Thursday. All of our bites came in 2ft or SHALLOWER. Do you remember what I mentioned about bass not reacting to their surroundings in the way humans do?
What's up fam! To piggy back off Brian Barde post... Vest Up, Buckle Up, Slow Up and Phone Up!!! Dumb folks be dumbin out here!
In all seriousness, we had motor vehicle fatality last night. Driving too fast and unbuckled... Snapped two power poles and was ejected. Luckily the children in the car were not badly hurt.
Remember, the good Lord only gives you so many chances. Seatbelts keep you in the vehicle and behind the wheel. They only work if you use them.
Stay safe y'all!
What began as an episode of deja vu quickly went south. I am repeating the trip from a couple of weeks ago. I fished today at Alum Creek, learned a little and explored all new wate. Loaded up and headed west to Indian Lake to fish tomorrow. On a pit stop and gas fill up I did my routine walk around, looking at tie down straps, traier hitch, and tires. When I discovered a flat tire. Not sure how long I was driving with a flat but oh well. If you have a dual axle trailer get yourself a 4x4 it makes changing a tire so much easier. Long story short a bolt from the caliper came free, allowing the caliper to pivot and rub a hole on the inside of the rim. Some mcgiver ingenuity with zip ties and I was able to get to a home depot for a new bolt. Guess who checked the other bolts. Now that that is out of the way we can enjoy the rest of the trip. Happy 4th and for those who have served THANK YOU
