Good luck with the little league tourny, my fiend...

Good luck with the fish too. I wonder if the fuller the moon... the better? (less reliance on the spotlights perhaps)

Well, we bowed out with a loss, so done with that.

With the rains, we very well may wait for the next weekend. Will let you know.

I definitely thinka full moon would be an advantage.

My son shot the current World Record Big Head here in north Alabama ... I have lived here all my life and had never even seen a Big Head until the night we got this one ... the Alabama state biologistsaid that it was only the 2nd one he had seen in the Tennessee river .... here is a picture of Chris my son and his Big Head ... 85#s

They get that big and I'm definitely tying myself off to your boat.

Actually i can attest to the full moon thing the more moon the better you can see the big heads and the buffs with no light. I mean you can actually see them down in hte water its cool to see the bigheads coming at you with the mouths open.........

And next weekend's a full moon.

No bigheads today, but a mess of si\vers. Hit one between the dorsal and tail and it put up one heck of a fight dragging the boat around and all. By the time I got it in, it had torn its tail section half off.

Not just to the boat C. We're talkin' industrial strength PFD here.
BTW - nice bunny. It's soooo you. and I think it just might be "the smallest one I've ever seen."
