The Pontoon's Maiden camping/crappie fishing voyage with my wife

[mb4850]

My wife and I loaded the pontoon with all the gear we thought we could use and launched at Bo's Landing on Beaver Lake about 5pm Friday and headed up the lake. I stopped off at one of my old honey holes and they were there.My first crappie. Then Cindy got in on the action. The crappie were biting well and we caught a few and eased on up the lake to a cove and I tied the boat to a tree in the middle of the cove and cooked supper. We ate and then set up the tent on the front of the pontoon and went to bed. Slept till about day light and after we pulled the boat up to shore and let the dogs potty we started fishing again and fished till about 11 and started the grill up, while still fishing, and cooked up some burgers. I fished a couple more hours while the wife took a nap. The wind got up pretty good so we headed in. I only brought home a dozen but probably caught 20 good keepers. Had a good trip and it want be our last.

Cane pole I ain't no spring chicken, and it's kind of hard for the two of us to camp out on my 12' kayak. Lol
