Default Great Day at Buggs

We were at the ramp a little before 7/30. Back home by 3/30. Caught 67 with 15 keepers. Nothing over 10 1/2". Lake is full of small bream found over brush. Went to 5 old piles and each had been freshen up since we were last there. Found 4 new large piles each in good locations. Was a great day to be on the water. As we were loading up this old couple along with I would guess their daughter and son in law got onto a "TWO" person pontoon type water vehicle. It had a motor and the old man was seated behind like a bike handle steering device. The two women were seated on the floor in front of the two men. The pontoons where all but submerged because of the weight. None of the four are on a diet if you know what I mean. Not one of them had a life vest on nor could I see any. The older people where I would guess late 60;s early 70's. Hope they had a nice ride.

67 and 15 sounds great. I sure wish they would move that lake closer to me.

Good Job Andy.

Your right Don. I should have used the term "older" then old. I was just trying to imply that they were way past the age to try out for the Olympic swim team if you know what I mean. I'm 63 myself. Bottom line is like you say, hope they made it back to the dock O.K. Was a bad situation to put ones" self into being they were in 30' of water. Guess they could always hang onto the pontoons it it capsized.
