Lost a step it seems

[Ketchn]

There was a day when I was a bit more energetic and quicker with my camera on my phone . That was not yesterday
Struggled to get images captured yesterday for sure in a stiff northwest wind and struggled a bit to get specimens for the images as well ....
One thing worthy of mention was I think I got a tap is well over with in that spot , they laid on it really hard when they made their little crappie minds up to eat it .
Tried a late afternoon visit over there for grins , never hit it any time other than around lunch time . Might have managed more fish if I tried another color and or a different bait , but 33 fish in an hour and 15 minutes aint just a horribly poor ketch rate right ?
Around 10 fish or so were in the over 10 inches size range and most of them were black crappie .
Sure was a startling situation when one committed to eating said artificial bait . The KABOOM was right there and it really did feel sweet . Love a hammer it hard thump is me
Was all alone out there and did a few time delay camera captures and bought lost my phone when the wind knocked it off a barrel towards to water , seems my hands are still pretty fast though and was able to snatch it up before it went for a swim ....
Sorry for the lack of fish stories and images lately ,had some kind of cold thing for a few days and with hunting season upon me and the other things in life to take care of , I am off my normal 5 to 7 times a week water visits .
particulars , northwest wind 10 to 15 , 50 ish outside ,water probably 60 ish , fish were mostly in the lower part of the water column at around 6 deep in 7 to 8 foot of water . liked it moved a bit in some cases and even a twitch here and there coupled with a slightly rising .
all the fish went free as is the case when I hit them alone 99.9% of the time .
thats my story and onward I go to play hunter fella in the woods on the afternoon hunt this evening ......

With everything else you had going on you haven’t lost your touch! Feel well and put the KABOOM on a whitetail and some Texas Slabs!

they are fairly ding dong in what color they want when and sometimes it matters not at all
can be super finicky down to a tiny detail even , could drive a sane person crazy ...
thank goodness for me my sanity was never in question ....
