Smallies
« on: July 05, 2012, 07:46:20 PM »
I went fishing with this guy named Steve Howard yesterday.  Fishing was fine,  the crowds were swell, and the people walking the trails were really friendly.  Met up with one guy who was taking pictures of flowers.  I was like, hey bud what are you doing?  He looked at me and said, Taking pictures of flowers.  Damn right, I said, Happy fourth.  Next thing you know I caught another fish.  The fishing was pretty much great the entire time besides the 2nd half of the 2nd hour, but the first half of the third hour made up for it and the next three halves were steller.  Anyways here is some Smallie Porn.  If its not your style sorry, snook porn will come soon enough.  Well, I am getting a headache from the light, so I am going back to the cave.


---great place to park and look through your guides of the rod










Pal,

On a serious note, to all the troops who have done what they have done, thank you.  Happy Fourth or Fifth.

Pal, it was great to fish with you on the 4th and enjoy a great day on the water. The Smallie bite was great and the crowds slim. Can't wait to get out again.

That looks like a lot more fun than replacing boat trailer bunkers & rewiring a utility trailer :-[

Looks like some sweet action.  I was in charge of a huge fundraiser bbq in our neighborhood and sweated my ass off all day serving hot meat.

Arghhh - killin' me!  I've been doing some 6am to 9am carp fishing these past several days due to my work schedule.  I have 2 lousy drum to show for it, along with a nice 8.8 lb grass carp I caught today - but I have 7 hours of fishing invested in that one fish!  Carpin' has been slooooow for me so far....

Toddro,

I've been studying up on them carps. I bet they would hit a green/brown sowbug if you could get one in the lane and across their nose.

I've taken up biking. Averaging only 10 miles right now but only because my girls can't keep up. I had no idea there were any fish left in TN.
