YIPES-STRIPES!- Version 2
Early yesterday morning's Posting-attempt(obviously too early), was "challenged" and lost AFTER 40 minutes of artistic-creativity!:banghead Well, AFTER my failed Senior, computer-challenged attempt of self-rescue/fix, I decided to call the owner of this C.com thingy.:Rofl As usual, Ed was sitting in his Lifeguard-chair(unfortunately for him, NOT @the Beach!), always willing to help a member during a SENIOR-moment:Gift
As the trouble-shoot exercise unfolded, Ed theorized that my large, Caveman-club apparently touched something it shouldn't have!nonono With his astute capabilities/patience, he got me back-up & running, but unfortunately the Cow(Post) had already left the barn!:deadhorse
Thursday's solo-trip is well worth relaying(twice) because of the atypical diversity that I was Blessed with enjoying. L/l'g 8 rods was 1st method chosen on the early, building-winds, sunny Florida day.:check(w/t 75.9*) Didn't take but a minute to get that long-tailed, black critter w/striped tail out the boat, because my 14' r yielded a nicely-shouldered 13" to start my day. Clicker was being routinely massaged with each ice-bathed guest.:highfive Two very nice Channel Catfish added to the day's workout, thankfully forecasting my Catch o' the Day! Attachment 451109Attachment 451110 19" WIPER [White Bass/Striper hybrid}. This VERY shy combatant did NOT want to see the inside of my cooler after a net-massage(ticklish?) OR meet his new friends that were just chillin'!:Rofl
After having enough fun for three people, and the whitecaps(20 mph), I decided to head to the skinny, more protected water. With u/l mini-stick(5') as weaponry, it took but a minute to get my big Speck o' the day.

Here's a few more pics= Say HELLO to my little friends!:ThumbsUp

Wiper was fooled with a 1/32 oz. beetle-spin orange/white silver sparkle 2" twister, my usual :Fire mini-stick lure was 1/32 oz. BlackChartreuse tube.
Thanks for Ridin'/Readin'/Reelin'
Note: Because of my preference to u/l mini-stickin', probably will end up downsizing my Caveman-Club!White Flag Icon:ThumbsUp
