I'd called JR Dice yesterday afternoon to see if he might want to fish the tourney today. He called me back this morning around 8:30 to see if I still wanted to fish it... :
...a little late. I told him that I'd already hooked up with a couple folks to go with and he ended the call by saying, "Aight man, I'm gonna go catch about a six pounder here in about thirty minutes." I called him from Wilson's after we were done and he said, "Hold on man, I wanna show you something, I'll be there in a sec." JR drove up to Wilson's and pulled out a monster 28" trout that was fat as hell. JR caught it on a grub and said that he'd spent a long time trying to revive it, but that the fish kept rolling belly up when he'd let go of it in the water. So he kept it and I took a picture. The Diceman knows where fish hide.After reading a few other fishing forums and getting some cool ideas from other folks, I want to try and keep track of the number of trout and redfish I can catch this year. I've bought baseball pitch counters and have one for trout and one for redfish. Just an experiment that probably won't last, but so far the tally is Redfish: 2, Trout: 0. I didn't need them today, but will have them on the belt in future trips. I've got to find some batteries for the camera, but will post pics here shortly.
