Spring and fall migrations let us pretend we are better fisherman than we really are. Finding and catching good fish from shore in the summer is a much better test of one's knowledge, skill, endurance, and commitment. It is also expensive and, for most, requires travel with very uncertain reward. They are out there, though.

Aye Kapitan! Therein lies the rub, job and family commitments have obscured my ability to get out when the going was good. Now that the goings are nossomuch I need to wrap my mind around my few opportunities that exist to chase summer fish.
I've often done OK in the past this time of year (considering the time of year) with a pick of decent fish and I just need to mentally get myself in that mindset. I just can't believe TOMORROW kicks off August. |

John -
Technically, tomorrow is the 31st so you can still catch a July bass.

I am employmentally challenged from being dedicated. If I fished everynight and didn't get beauty sleep my boss would fire my butt.
For those of you that can run on a few hours sleep time and time again, Bless you and go forth.
Me, I can't do it or I'm useless at work. |

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
