Had motor problems at the dock this morning in 90+ degree FL temps. Instead of turning around and heading home I said I was going to go get what I came for. So I parked the boat and went bank fishing.

I asked everyone to share a fun moment yesterday. Here’s mine. In 2021 I went down to Okeechobee to prepractice for our first tour tournament. Okeechobee is one of the places where I will go in pre-practice before the event because most of the time the areas stay the same. In three days of Boat riding a fish about three hours. I found this area down south, and I actually never made a cast in it during that pre-practice.Fast-forward 60 days later when we had the tournament, it ended up being one of my best places and I caught so many fish there. I will never forget this tournament.

Boat registration tomorrow. Figured I’d ‘beat the bank’ as Dodson says. This is one of those WTH moments on the Tamiami Trail.

Caught some dinks and 1 good one.
It seems most of the bites were in shaded areas near where the banks drop sharply. At least in north Florida.
Did I mention it’s friggin hot
