After much deliberation, I made the decision to go to Talquin today. My son drove down from South Carolina just to fish today. Given the tides and wind, I felt we stood a better chance of catching a few fish on Talquin.
The day started slow. Hit a spot, catch 1 fish. At 11 we had boated 4 keepers. I finally moved to my honey hole of late, knowing I was going to have to fight the wind. The spot produced 8 more fish. That gave us a total of 12 for the day, all released to fight another day.
It doesn't matter where we go, or what we catch, I always enjoy having my son in the boat.

Luke has promised me I'll never be put in an old folks home, but his sister is gonna have to change my diaper and wipe the drool from my chin.
I figured they would just put ya on a houseboat and cut the ropes free another great day with yer son "priceless"

My son always looks out for me, Wevans. He's already told his mother that he is to be the first one called if I die. He has already made plans that he and his best friend will be headed this way with 2 trucks. He has assured his mother that he will take the two boats and all of the fishing equipment to a safe location (in South Carolina) so no one will have the chance to steal it. He has also asured his mother that the 3 people that show up for my funeral will fully understand his intention when they see the boats behind the trucks at the funeral.
It's very comforting to have a son that will take care of me.
