Went out last week with Parker to DC and killed'em! We were out of the house by 5am and on the water by 5:30. Hooked up our first of many by 5:45.
We had to make it fast and furious for we had a dead line that had to be met or suffer long if we missed the time frame of our wives...lol. The fish were plentiful, not large and mostly planters but a few carryovers that had decent girth. They started out liking Rainbow pop and then moved onto Jack-o-diamonds and then would only hit a big green flasher with a trailing worm. All-in-all we ended the day with 20 boated and missed numerous more. One did swallow the hook and became lunch for the day.
We met up with the Blackwell's and talked for a few minutes, always good to see Steve and his family. Brent and his crew showed up at around 8:30 and caught a few but didn't really hit the bite to well. The boat is starting to take shape and become a decent fishing boat. The trolling motor worked great this trip and kept us right at speed. Next thing to get on board will be a good fish finder, don't necessarily care for fishing by braille and hoping that you are in the right area. After the fish, worked on the boat a little and got the GPS mounted for easier viewing and also got the lights to work, need some new bulbs for them. We had great morning on the pond and "Trout City Pirates" are back in action. Off the lake by 10:30 and back home in plenty of time for the wives to get where they needed to be on time.
