Y'all! Maaaaaaan! Reaction Tackle is trying to get me fired quick!!!! Work on your packaging please! ME: NO I SWEAR SHERIFF THEY ARE FISHING WEIGHTS. SHERIFF: BOY HUSH AND PEE IN THIS CUP!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

So how many families are coming to the retreat? My wife and 13 yr old son will be there.

So I feel I need to explain my absence\ lack of involvement the past week. I have been processing a fatal accident, 13 yr old v\ motor vehicle, I worked last weekend. It's extra hard, when your own child is a 13 yr old as well. I think the hardest part was knowing\ accepting there was nothing I could do and there was no crime to explain why it happened. I was just a God's timing. I hate to say it but I am thankful that she did not go to the same school as my son. I have become very efficient at compartmentalizing my personal and professional life. But I guess, all of them were full and I needed to a new compartment to hold this one for me. I literally just wanted to sleep and fish last week but do to the weather I wasn't able to fish. So I sat in more floor and glued jig heads and soft plastics together, respooled reels, organized\ reorganize my tackle. I was finally able to go fishing Friday and did really good. The wind was worse than I anticipated for my kayak and I got discouraged. But I remembered strategies from the SUF school. Found some pockets and just fished.(I'll post those pics later) It was nice... Definitely what I needed. I was going to post this Friday but I didn't want to take away from Brian Latimer tournament excitement. I say this to say, self awareness and mental health are very important. I'll try to cover some of this in my roundtable this week. Also hug your loved ones, make things right with whoever you need to. Answer calls from family\old friends that you haven't talked to in a long time. You never know when you won't be able to, and regret sticks for awhile. Love y'all, missed y'all..... And Lord have mercy, when you miss a day or two on the app it's hard to keep up. Proud of all have have done this week and welcome to all the new members! 😄 😄😄

Since there was a new post on bait colors The link is a really cool video of depth change and color. It goes all they way to 100 or so feet. The photo is for the lack of a thumb nail.

Well after a morning of sitting in Juvenile Court, this evening I took a hour or so to hit a neighborhood pond. Also, I had remind myself I still got it... I was finally able to knock the skunk off my back and catch the first bass of the year. The Ol' watermelon Red Magic Senko wacky rig on a Spearpoint finesse hook sealed the deal and let me put the Habeas Grabbus on two of them.

It happened like Brian Latimer said... If you see an isolated stick, sticking out of the water, there will be bass there.

Welp... Update time. When you fish points it pays off! My son caught 10 trout! I set the hook on a couple for him but he reeled them in. Actually hooked 12, but we let two kids that were fishing next to us catch them and keep them since they had not caught anything yet... The only thing better than getting paid to fish... Is getting paid to watch and help kids fish. He didn't place in the top three but had to be close. His two biggest were a 2.5 and 2.3 pounds. Anyone have any good trout recipes? Hahaha!
