    Default TESTING TESTING TESTING >>>


    captains log star date 5 / 25 / 2018 ......we have just entered the Arkie solid tube nebula .
    water temperature is 86 and outside temperature is well above that .
    fish were in 5 fow on heavy brush out to as deep as 10 fow on brushpiles .
    bites were heavy and fast and fish were fighting hard .
    both of us got broke off twice each and also lost quite a few .
    only one bass as a side ketch and one black crappie .....everyone else ran whitey.
    2 pm to 4 pm bites and off the water at 5 pm .
    front blew in after about 2 hours and shut them lips up like they were super glued together
    sure was fun in the sun though till the clouds came up heavy and the temp dropped .
    had to get out before the yeehaw crowds hit the water this weekend .
    bud wanted fish for his freezer and we kept 36 . could have kept our 50 if we were inclined to .
    but in the end we wasn't into all that fish measuring and such .
    twas just a 3 hour tour .....
    hope you enjoy the photos and read

    Great post. I am going to have to get some of those tubes. I don't fish tubes much but, I need to try them more.

    Tubes are king. You need someone just to take photos. Then you can fish faster.

    Good job! I think you should try to duplicate it over the holiday weekend. That’s adventure fishing!

    Good idea. I've had the same thought about a camera person also.
