I took Friday off so DeeDee and I could go to Econfina for a little sun and fun. She always hears me talk about how much I enjoy the sunrise when I go fishing so she wanted to see that. I told her she would have to get up at 4:30AM. I couldn't believe that she agreed to it. So, by 5:30AM we are on the road. It took a little longer than I anticipated to get the boat and us in it, in the water. We got to see the sunrise as we rode out the river.



The conditions could not have been better for topwater action. For some reason I have never thrown topwater lures much, but I could not pass this up. So I threw and threw and threw. Finally, pay dirt, first topwater Red. About 21-1/2"



Then another first, scollaping. Figured, what the heck, I'll dive in.



Only gathered enough to toss in with some Alfredo sauce...it was good !!!

I cleaned the scollaps and DeeDee enjoyed the sun....It was good to get her back on the water, good for me too...



Can't wait till next time....

Ms. Dee Dee's smile tells it all! As I've always said..."nothing like an Econfina sunrise."

HEY WELBY & DEE DEE, IT IS GREAT TO SEE BOTH OF YOU OUT ON THE WATER AGAIN, I KNOW IT HAS BEEN A HARD LONG ROAD TO GET WHERE YOU ARE, KEEP UP THAT THERAPY DEE DEE AND WONT BE LONG BEFORE YOU WILL BE LIKE NEW AGAIN. Y'ALL KEEP SAFE AND BE CAREFUL.
PA THE OLD MAN OF THE SEA

Glad to hear you and Dee are back on the water, Welby. Thanks for sharing.

Now thats GREAT!

Man, you're full of 1st's. Next thing you know you'll quit using GULP!

Glad you and DeeDee had a good time. Awesome sunrise.

That is great Welby. Who ever don't believe in prayer, this should be a head turner.

Good deal. Did you not find that many or is that just what you felt like cleaning?
I limited out last week about a mile in from the old broken down bird rack.

So glad you guys are back on the water. It is definitely therapeutic.

Nice weekend Welby, you deserve one after this awful disappointing start to the UGA season. I hate to see them go down.

Go Cats.

Nice trip, Welby. It's good to see you and DeeDee back out there again. She looked to be having a good time.

Glad to see you guys back on the water.

Nice report, Welby! Good to see you back on the water.
