We got out today. It was a nice sunny morning, but the fish knew we were coming. Clear skies, muddy water, and REALLY sneaky fishies.

Suckersticker, Fishpoint, his daughter Megan, and myself enjoyed a very quiet morning at DPCA. The water looked so perfectly still that even the fish didn't want to disturb it.Suckersticker even tried wading out into the pads to scare something up, but to no avail.




This was Megan's first bowfishing outing, and she got introduced to just how well those barbed points grab every branch and vine within 20 feet when you're walking the shore.

We'll get her out on a boat soon to go chase down a few victims without all the snags.

PS. Rumor is that she likes hanging out with guys in rubber pants.
