Today’s forecast was rain after 3 so I finished my Granddaughters pancake breakfast and came home and hooked up. Didn’t start til 11 and figured I’d get a few and I wasn’t disappointed. Only caught 7 or 8 I think but it was enough for me. Home

So off I went to my usual stomping grounds. I haven’t kept any fish in months and I’ve been hearing a bluegill sammich calling my name. After the noseeums tied to eat me alive last week I was in no hurry to start early for a repeat performance

Camryn and I haven’t been in a while, we both had time, and so we went. I had a good bite going the last time the river stopped flowing, and it hadn’t rained in quite a while. Hoping the timing was right we dropped in before 7 and made it to

So I hollered at Ernie and off we went. Left early, saw Bassman at the ramp. I hope the luck turns around with the new ride. Didn’t want to stay late and neither of us had a full load of steam, but needed to get out for a while and catch up.

Y’all know how I like to fish. Ive been telling my buddy Phil about it for so long it was beginning to get a little thin, so I got him in the other woman this evening and he got his introduction. Started fishing about 3:30 and stayed til 6,

You have all seen my posts over the past few weeks of my salt water adventures. Up2Specks has been a gracious host twice to both see that myself and his other guests were in the fish and that a good time was had by all. His mission was well

Was going to work today but wimped out yesterday and stayed home. Good thing I did. Dinner with the SIL and gdaughters last night and i was just tired, more than usual and a bit cranky too. Fell asleep in the chair at about 10 til 8, went to

For quite some time I have anticipated todays gathering. Y’all know my story and there has also been some other gatherings that I had in mind to attend that just didn’t happen. Speck Detector shared my boat today and had my back, making sure

Since Ernie and I went about a month ago I’ve been wanting to get back out. The last trip was tough on me, too early in the recovery stage. Didn’t get hurt but it let me know that I didn’t have the endurance that I needed just yet. Hoping that

Having worked yesterday and mowed the weeds when I got home, I was ready for a little me time. I dropped in about 7 and went looking for some bedded fish I had smelled a week ago. Didn’t find them and really didn’t look too awful hard, and

I said last night that if I got a small window in the weather I would go try out my new rods. Well, I didn’t get gone at the crack of dawn but I did get out at about 0700:. Windy and humid, it was nice to be the third boat at the ramp. Dropped

Of my life came yesterday. My youngest Granddaughter that will turn 3 on June first and her mom got to go and catch Tahlia's first fish. This Pawpaw was looking forward to this for a long time. We tried around Christmas but without the boat

Since I fished in the salty side. Got a call Friday evening from Speck Detector wondering what I was doing Saturday morning. All I had in mind was a trip to the river to do more of what I’ve been doing for the last few months. It didn’t take

I think there is no need to speak of how the J.O.B. gets in the way of prime fishing time during the week. Every now and then the planets align, and something beyond our control, helps get a workin man a few minutes time for the unexpected.

As I posted last week, I had Camryn out Saturday morning. We did our best to find some fish in the river and hide from the wind, and we did well on both counts. 48* on the truck display had Cam fussing. I'm trying to get her exposed to something

I'd like to introduce Alex and Jackie. We work together and have become friends over the time I've been there. We all enjoy fishing but they don't put it as far forward as I do. I talk of different ways I fish and what I catch and Alex shows
