    Default Woods trip


    So Skeetbum (Tim) called me mid-day yesterday and said lets go catch a few at Woods. Being free I said sure, why not. If you got time to breathe, you got time to fish. We ended up having a decent day. We hit several spots and ended up with 10 keepers. The biggest one was 1lb and all were pretty skinny as discussed before. The best memories and fishing trips sometime come from spur of the moment phone calls. Thanks Tim!

    On another note, I have signed a new job offer. It's time to leave the hot and nasty forging process at Nissan and take a Manufacturing Supervisor position with Schneider Electric in Smyrna. It's a 50 minute drive but almost doubling your salary will make the drive a lot easier. God is good...

    P.S. Sorry no pic but my phone was almost dead after I got home.

    Congrats on the new job and glad you had a great trip. Maybe the new job will get your participation on the fishing circuit back to where it should be. That commute everyday is a tough one as I made it for years. DO NOT DRIVE YOUR TRUCK! I was spending over $425 a month on fuel and that equals about $650 a month in salary to cover that! I drive the 35 mpg vehicle these days and was able to save enough in fuel savings to make the payment and fuel for as much as I was paying for fuel alone driving the SUV. Got a new car and less maintenance cost.
