there's blues out there

You would think after last time, I would learn, but there are those that would say I'm a bit scatter brained about these things. I left straight from work so I packed the night before... I even debated stoppin' at the house to pick up my lightweight rain pullover. Traffic was brutal so I skipped it.

Bad move... it really took away from what should have been a sweet night. After taking a few waves early, I just was off and everything was a struggle. I couldn't concentrate... I felt awkward working my lure (how hard is a ballistic missile to work), awkward fighting the fish, landing them. I'm so mad at myself, that I looked thru the catalogs last night for a few of those cheapo travel pullovers to store in both of my cars and the boat.

I still had a blast, but by the end, I just wanted the heck outta Dodge. GS, maybe I'll see you out there on the water this weekend and thanks for the baits... that's going to be THE color dude. Tomorrow, am, I will be slaying fish on those on the harbor.

Also, hung around a few minutes and bs'd over a cold one with Topwater and his wife. Thanks for the brew, it helped shake off the shivers. Best of luck to them this weekend, though I doubt they will be reading this.

In closing, man, those are just cool fish...
