For the 2 boats that launched on KY Lake at Hillman Ferry this morning

1st at 7AM, the 2nd at 8AM in the cold drizzle.......you gentlemen, are hardcore fishermen!

Some things are too important to sit home and wait for. Hope the fish cooperate for them.

and WHY weren't you watching 'em launch from the other side of the ramp (on the water ???) huh ????

Well, after posting that, I thought, "Heck, I didn't come here to set in the bus!" From my warm seat next to the window, I thought the water even looked a bit calmer than the past couple days.....So, once I load my gear, slip into my raingear, off I go in the Kayak.

Spent 2.5 hours on the water, did manage 2 of the nicer 'gills I've caught since getting here (even had the wild idea I just might get half a dozen for supper). Long story short, released the 2 fish, came back wet and freezing. got into some dry clothes, put on a pot of coffee, and turned the heat up. I ain't steppin' back outside 'til tomorrow!

Anyone who caught fish here today (and I hope they did) earned 'em! Said hello to a couple guys who passed by in another boat, he said he wondered if any of us had any sense, I told him I felt the same.

At least you tried it.
I'm still in the thinking about it stage.

[Dave and Lynn]

Awesome.

[windstone]

might have been commercial fishermen that have to check their lines rain, sleet or snow.....

[feelay]

Hahaha! I went out on Sardis this morning. Rain, cold, 25-30 mph wind, 3' rollers...we caught fish too! You never catch them on the couch.
