    Default Afternoon Delight


    One of my favorite songs has a second verse that goes something like this...

    Started out this morning feeling so polite
    I always thought a fish could not be caught who wouldn’t bite
    But you’ve got some bait a waitin and I think I might try nibbling
    A little Afternoon Delight!

    Well I always thought that song was about something else but turns out it is just about fishing after lunch..Afternoon Delight
    That is what I did today, talked a few fish into biting and even used a few nibbles.

    The 4lb Yellow Braid was used on a nice piece of graphite, and Bobby Garland Baits were on the menu. Now in the afternoon I fish shade. Shade from steep bank bluffs, Bridge pier shade, and dock shade. It where they tend to hang, and it’s cooler on me.

    I would call it a TARP, a squeaker maybe, but a nice specimen nonetheless. His twin brother was home also.....dang almost a double.

    Did I mention it was hot? 92 on the truck when I launched and the water temps were averaging 85-87 in the shade, with no wind. But anyway I finished the evening shooting a few docks and secured enough for a good mess to join me for the ride home.

    As it got dark I could hear the Starlight Band singing about Sky Rockets that were in sight, and it was an Afternoon Delight!

    Congrats on your trip! The fish cooperated and you put some fine specimens on the board. Sure sounds like you could have jumped on in for a bath with those water temps!
