Birddog called me the other night and i could tell he was in bad shape. He had the DT's something terrible. I could hear him shaking over the phone. Said he needed to wet a hook or go crazy. He wanted to do a little pond Bass fishing. Met up at the Dog house about 4:30 yesterday with boat in tow and off we went. Dropped the boat in off the side of the pond and an ice cold blue gill ( budlight) was pulled out of the box. First part of the trip was looking like a bust....no fish...no bites...nothing. Birddog was first to get the stink out. Nice one!! BD continued to skunk me for quite awhile cause I was too hard headed to change baits. I finally started throwing a skitter walk and on the second cast got a good one in the boat. Birddog was lay'nm in the livewell like firewood on a rattle trap and a soft jerkbait. We fished till we couldn't see and headed for the hill. final tally was 15 Bass!! nice haul for a 3 hr trip. Birddog was nice enough to let me take the fish home which made my neighbors very happy. The old guy's boats been out of commission for a few weeks and he had a wide grin on his face when I took him the fish this morning. thanks for the fix BD hope you feel better.....
