New Personal Record

Not fish, but time on the water which is my biggest problem since I went over a month without getting out at all. 5 days in a row now on 4 different lakes, even though some of it has been 2 hours after work in the evening. Had 7 short bass tonight and one barely legal (14" in MI). The last couple days I have been following advice from Mac1, one of his special worms, ultra-light, and super slow. That and a few from a wacky rigged senko, j-n-p, etc. Have not gotten skunked on any day, which is a real surprise to me.
Hopefully I can keep this streak going thanks to a busy and understanding wife and a little bit of a slow time at work.

I barely have any time anymore, because of football, we start hitting today, so I'm going to be sore, and It'll be hard to get me off the couch fro anything besides fishing.

Got back out tonight to the same little lake as last night. Only caught one but it was a personal best at 4.15. I know guys catch them that size a fair amount around here and hopefully someday I will look back at this and think it was a small fish, but it was a blast. Took 15 minutes to get him in the boat since he came up early, saw me, and burried himself in the weeds.
