Hello Zack
 

It doesn't look like good fishing weather today.when you pick up the rod there is a small price..plan to come inside my home and play me a game of chess..I'll fix you a sandwich and cold beverage as well.

If you can"t find my house..please call I will be home all day..

Thanks,
Chuck

Hey Chuck,

That sounds like a fair price to me. I'll head your way early this afternoon if that'll work for you. It's been awhile since I've played chess so I'll be a bit rusty haha. See ya later.

Sounds good...glad your rusty.lol..I don't like losing(-:

Hey Chuck, I sent you a text a bit ago. My mom needs me here since we got a new air conditioner unit so theres a lot of clean up. I can come by tomorrow if thats alright. I'm looking forward to the chess game. You definitely got a chance to beat me every time haha.

Worked out perfectly..as always..had unexpected company..however,the rod will stay on the porch..you may pick up at any time

Another great day for a chess game or..two..or three
:happy0001::happy0001::happy0001::o

The wind is presently howling as new bands are going over, raining cats and dogs..good day to chill.

Good seeing ya today Zack. I had fun playing chess...will have to do again..soon

I had a great time as well... Looking forward to it again.

I'm going out tomorrow,..the bite will be slow I'm sure..but one never knows..6:10 on the water with a cup of jo

I might head out there in the morning as well. But I have to leave by around 8:30 if I do go out there and fish.

Your welcome to come with me...I plan to pitch or drift exclusively...probably start where you lost the big one ..and work back to the trucks,,,if so let's be in the water at 6:00 sharp..that gives us plenty of time...bringing 2 worm rods and a frog rod.

IF the bite is on, I'll simply drop you off and keep fishing. The moon is off and the pressure may have stunned them but the weather will be like spring.

I'll definitely come with you in the morning if you don't mind dropping me off if the fishing is good. I would just have to be at the truck around 8:30. Just let me know and I can be there whatever time in the morning.

I plan on having the boat in the water at 6....if you have mosquito repellant ,bring it...you'll be in the back of the boat...so it could hurt you a little..I just want to experiment and see what the fish are doing..

95 per cent of fishing will be pitching..covering as much shoreline as possible.

The sounds good to me. I'll be there in the morning ready to go. I appreciate it.

Right after you left the bite turned on..I boated 3..all of them were over 2 pounds.Here's a 3 pounder..

nice fish Chuck

Thanks Aaron...could"t find fish on the radar, pitching failed, top water failed..casting the shoreline failed...where are the fish after a ton of rain..(-: ....try flipping in thick stuff..and there they are .

So they were back in the thick stuff then? Were you using the jig still? I hate that I had to leave haha. Good job though Chuck

No sir..worm ..lost 2 good ones.

I guess warmer waters meant better fishing haha. Good job.

This one was 2 even..nice hook set..pulled all 3 out of the salad..





And a 2 1/4 pounder.

That's a good turn around from the morning haha. Were they more in the trees or the reeds? Did you notice what the water temp. ended up going up to by the time they started hitting?

Lot's more boats...

Temperature (water) 80degrees

Fish were caught everywhere .li fished till just about 1;00

I covered a lot of water...
Cya. At 6:00 Sat. For the tournament..I'm ready (-:

Well I'll be out there fighting the boats Saturday haha. I hope I'll be a little more prepared this time.

I just talked with Matt.he will be there..he still wants to play ya in racket ball..he's got an extra racket

How to go Chuck! I did not think they would be biting just yet after that big storm and such a pressure change.. Congrats!

Here"s what happened Phil lol ..I was humbled....

Zack and I started fishing at 6 on the dot..we fished for 2 1/2 hours..I saw about 5 other boats .I presumed they were being skunked like we were. Zack had to leave at 8:30 but if the fish were biting I was going to stay. On the way back to the trucks I meant another fisherman that Zack and I had recently befriended. I ask how they did this morning..expecting a skunk..Here is what he said..in his southern draw.

My boy here got 4 on a frog and I got 6 on a red shad worm..nothing over 2 pounds though...)-: my fishing pride was hurt..Zack and I never even got a bite. That's it ! I decided to drop off Zack and stay.....I refused to get skunked...

I decided to flip the thick stuff on the shoreline. ...it was hard work but it got the job done...Plus prepared me for this week's mini tournament.(-:

All that fishing paid off in another way..it's only been 15 days since I've been dieting and have lost 16 pounds..yesterday I burned 2 . Flipping is hard work..

Well I went out for 2 hours this evening and did not get a single bite... tried to fish the thick stuff and pitched alot of shoreline and covered alot of water. I hope tomorrow turns out better.

It did
