Bass in DC???? well I might have been wrong.........LOL

Jim and I headed out for morning fish.  We did ok my first hook up was probably the biggest, but to slow on the net...I know, fish story but true.  Then Jim hooked up and got in a nice bow.  We limited out by 9:30 and off the water with a couple decent sized bows and one brown.  Oh ya the bass I caught a smallie just off the island trolling the pop and worm it was huge can't you tell it is the big one the pic above ;)....lol.  Anyhow a great day on the pond this morning.  til next time keep smilin'

Morning Fish turned into Evening Fish Fry!

Saturday we headed out for a morning of fishing, we meaning my oldest son Jimmy Lee and I.  It had been a couple years since we got to go out on fish together.  He just finished up his BS in Accounting and actually had the day off from work.  We headed up around 5:30 ;) ya someone slept in, but we got on the water around 6:10 and lines in.  Jim hooked up first and quick on a JOD Cowbell two tone.  A little pan size carry over bow.  We got the lines back out and I got one on the JOD cowbell nickle and then another the second with a little bigger girth to it.  We fished the morning it was slow but hits were short and light.  I started running Rainbow deeper and got a couple to take the bait.  While we were running "Trout City" a boat pulled along side us and there was our family from Mtn Valley.  It was great seeing them they got on the water a little later than us and were struggling getting any hits we told them what we were doing and they followed suit and got a couple by the time Jim and I limited out.  We pulled up along side them before taking off and they said we need to have a fish fry so we did that evening in the Mtn Valley.  It was great to meet and greet again for the evening over fillets of trout and fresh halibut from our AK trip along with some english chips.  We stayed most of the evening and visited and reminisced of the day and trips before.  Til next time keep smilin'
