It was well after 5pm before we even got started toward the lake and we were in no hurry. When we arrived at the landing, no one was launching, and just a few were bank fishing. Carol decided it would be a great time to learn to back the truck down the ramp. In just a matter of 30 minutes or so...she had backed across the parking lot and got the rig headed in the right direction down the ramp. A great job well done considering this was her first trailer backing adventure. We're going to wait until the next bass tournament for the second lesson.
Dark was on us pretty quick, but we did manage one decent white crappie and one big lipped camo crappie weighing 4lbs 5 oz. Good thing this was on the BnM jig pole and not the Ozark. I thought I was hung up and tried to break it off when the fish decided to hit the road. If I woulda been using my Ozark, I would have tried to punch the jig loose instead of breaking off. Good eats tomorrow.
Carol nets much better than she backs a trailer![]()
