• Field testing on the bonne idee

    Trying out some new combos today just for kicks. After a couple changes I finally found a winning combination.

    Today's conditions were low stained water, with partly cloudy skies that gave way to thunder storms with plenty lightning around noon.

    I fished in the rain for a while since the fish didn't mind (caught 3 in just a short time) I could hear some thunder in the distance but it didn't sound too bad.

    That's where I messed up. I had to make a mad dash to the ramp in a sideways rain with lightning pouring down all around me.

    I though Jesus was gonna call me home any second.

    Beached the boat under a bridge near the ramp to wait it out till it was safe for me to load up.

    I learnt my lesson today, when I hear thunder I'll be headed to the ramp....

      Nice mess.....if you fish long enough, we've all been there with a good bite right as a storm approaches, sometimes they come in quicker than others, taking cover was a wise move.....
