Could have titled this, the one that got away, but to that in a bit. Drove by the ramp on the way home from 3rd shift & to my surprise seen a full parking lot. Was so gorgeous weather wise, couldn't resist, so got home & hem-ha'd around a while, getting gas ect....finally launching at 10am & fished til 2pm. Found fish scattered with no real "hot" area & ended up with 15 as hostages before pic/release. Was about 6 boats fishing the river run out to lake, asked 1 gent if anything happening, replied ok, as he was bringing 1 to the boat. Water is low & should produce a great shad run in a month or so. Now it was time to go home to power nap 6hrs, but went down agonizing over the 1 that got away, lost transforming a net sweep, while trying to keep pressure on the 10ft pole. Was easily the best fish this year, but I guess it will have to serve as the reason to go back after him/her the next trip....tight lines all....
