Well, I headed down to Chicot yesterday to try my luck. As usual, my luck wasn't so good. I fished about 2 hours yesterday, but one in the boat, one small one I threw back, three more that got off, a white bass and 5 gar. Wind was blowing somewhere around 356 mph. Today, I hit the water about 6:30 and ended up catching one little crappie and two yellow bass. Wind top speed today was somewhere around 589.3 mph. I finally quit fishing around 11:00. Still better than work, but not by much....

The fish that I did catch and hang yesterday were in 1' of water and blacker than an ace of spades.
