to my local favorite pond...
i caught a 10+ pounder there (once)so i thought i'd go there first
the amount of weed growth was truly amazing
it's taking over the place....seems like :doh:
i had to get real creative to shed the build up of sludge
(weeds) but all in all it was a fun time
I hooked a real big bass but must have had the hook point
in his jaw and just as fast it was off again (damn)
oh i hate that feeling where ya turn your head and grit your teeth
(i sharpened the hook point afterwards)
but a second later i was hooked up AGAIN-YAY!
and brought the fish to the boat along with 20 pounds of weeds
it rapped me up good.....
then i motored down to the deeper end and tied on a clear
sluggo like rubber bait that has internal sparkles and red foil
inside as well as a realistic eye and caught a much nicer bass
soon as it hit the shady water i was casting to....
i caught one more and then decided to call it a day because
the rain i was hoping for wasn't gonna happen
and i forgot my sun block and was getting kinda burned
the winch i installed did it's job and got (dragged)
the boat back in
the van just enough that i can SHOVE it on home....
(without having to do any heavy lifting)
but the highway cone i keep on the front of the boat
for safety sake to keep some idiot from rear ending me
which would basically kill me, fell off on the way home
and retrieving it was a real pain in the ass....so next time
i screw the Son of a beach down. :uhuh:
