Back on the water

Post by onefishtwofish »

If anyone read my post on the boating section, you will know my main boat is footless at the present time. A little work on Sat turned my duck slayer into a red slayer by making a bow mount for my transom mount TM. It was cheap and easy and I hope it will hold up.

We hit the water late this afternoon (4ish) since my son was headed back to college and had not had a fishing trip the whole week. We boated 7 reds and lost a couple of others with 3 of us fishing in about 2 hours of fun(net was in my other boat). I'll post some pics when he sends them. Kept a very nice tourney red, 26.75" and a shade over 6 pounds on the scales. All the fish were caught on a dark muddy bottom in shallow water, right where we were lookin for em. Thought we might be on them when as soon as we stopped at the first spot we spooked a slot size one off while we were gearing up.

This is not the fish from above pic, that one was about 24-25" , my nephew caught this one. My measuring stick was, in the other boat. Thankfully my nephew had a tape or this one would have been released, we knew it was close.

I gave the motor killer ramp another try.

Nice job for sure! Remember to transfer that net over to the 'duck' boat
