Way to turn a bad thing good...

[LeBron_Hill]

Well my day started out pretty crappy...Hauled my boat all the way down to West Point Lake and put it in the water...used my trolling motor to get away from the boat ramp due to so much traffic...lower down the motor and go to crank the boat and realized one very important life lesson...ALWAYS check to make sure u have ur boat keys before you leave the house...lol. I was so ticked off that i almost loaded the boat right back up and went home but decided that since i had my trolling motor i would just troll around and get my fix for the day anyways. i had a couple of spots that i had caught fish @ that were within reasonalbe trollin motor range so I just figured i would make a day out of it. After catching a couple of small fish i had somethin tap my worm so i reeled down and set the hook...felt a little heavier than normal then this toad jumped out of the water...damn near had a stroke...i just remember i kept saying to myself, please dont come off, please dont come off. Finally netted her. She was 4.67 lbs on my rapala scale and a little over 21" long. Not a monster by any means but I have been fishing this lake for 2 years and never caught anything bigger than 3 lbs so this fish at least gave me some hope. As you can tell from this short little novel i just wrote u guys, I am still a little excited. Thanks for letting me brag a little.
