Haven’t been feeling up to par for a couple of weeks. Took care of some chores yesterday and didn’t think I’d feel up to going this morning so I didn’t connect like I usually do. Felt a little better this morning so after sitting around for a while I loaded up and headed out. It was 8 when I grabbed a breakfast sammich on the way to the ramp at Lemon Bluff. More exploration than anything was in my mind. There’s a good sized backwater that I haven’t fished in a few years I wanted to try. It’ll be a while before I go back. Not much going on but I bet it will be hopping come spring.
Spent too long there and tried to find the other way out of this place and got turned around, wasting a little more time. Made a 20 minute run to where Nino and I went to a few weeks back. Wasn’t stellar there either but I did get more activity there. What struck me was the color difference from where I normally fish to here. You’ve seen enough of my pics to see what I’ve spoken of before, but these today though small were darker than I’m used to seeing. Didn’t get but about a dozen of the usual victims today and none were of keeper size. Finished up and headed for the ramp and enjoyed the ride. Got about a hundred yards from the ramp and here come the dime sized drops from a sunny sky, seems like one cloud was crying. Start to finish was two minutes and no more. Just enough to soak my shirt and shorts. Here’s some of the visitors , hope y’all had a good day. Someone please rotate the goofy pic please.
