Cold front...

The place we fished at legs went down.Only small jon boats can get through a2 foot wide 12" deep canel. While matt was manipulating the boat I cast aBB shot weighted 6 " Gambler Christmas tree..Bam ! i set the hook andbrought a 3 3/4 pound largemoth to the bank. That was the only bass caught all morning.

I love my depth finder..found all kinds of good structure. I ended up puttin gmy 8 pound line on my spinning rod with my trusty Rooster Tail 3/8th on it. Matt had gotten bored and was sleeping.[8D]When my drag stwrted screemimg he woke up. I said," MATT! I got a big one." As the fish pulled literaaly 50 yds off the spinning reel he said," Please Dad, don;'t lose that fish." It ran 50 more yds..clean across the pit and stopped. h enearly stripped off all of my Trilene 8 pound test. I quickly turned on the trolling motor and ran after ..whatever it was....It was a 13 - 14 foot gator.[8D]
Oh , matt had some action. he was bumping a Fire and Ice Culpret when he reared back on a really nice fish. he acted like a 10 pound bass. I netted a 6 pound mudfish instead.LOL The sucker ripped my net all up too.
It was fun. I got a reservation for Fish Hook on Jume 4th...
