Got on the water around 2:15 and a low tide. Ran to New river and started trowing a Rattlin Rouge in a very brisk wind :o catchin was slow but I did manage around 10 Bass "4 of which where keepers" :thumbup: the only problem was when I still only had one keeper in the boat and another shorty decided ta show me what a hook felt like :smt013 tried ta pull it and no go :smt011 had ta bend it and cut it off so I could keep fishing :-D changed out the hook and got my other three keepers before I started worrying about finding someone ta jerk it out :smt012 left the water at 4:30 and got my nephew to remove the hook :thumbup: It's amazing how much the wind blows your shirt up against your thumb and ya don't notice it till ya got something sticking out of it :o Can't wait ta see what tomorrow brings me :thumbup: :thumbup: :beer:

Think I'd trade my little boat, motor and battery (advertised in the "for sale" section) for a couple days of fishing in wevans boat. :lick:

I don't understand, Wevans. One would think as long as you've been fishing you would know better than to grab a Rogue. :smt011
