Thread: I Survived another......

The wife and I took the kids back to Ouachita again last week. We arrived Wed morning (6-11) and stayed until Sunday. We were on island number 10. My sister brought her husband and daughter and my father from Houston Tx. I fileted over one gallon of bream for them to take home. I can't say that I ever did pattern any fish the whole time I was there. I did see some brush that was interesting I will check out another day; I didn't want anybody to get bored while I was "fishing".

The only critters that got into our camp this time was a mama and poppa mallard. They were not bashful about getting into the bread. So, we started leaving scraps for them, then they stayed out of the good stuff.

I started communicating with Jesus Fri night during the storm. It got pretty rough around us. I am sure number 9 get hit several times by lightning. Fortunately, we were spared.

Afternoons and evenings were the best times. I used roostertails (black or firetiger) and crickets.

Bro-in-law got 2nd degree burns on his honkey white legs. Too hard headed for the SPF 50. Be careful.

Bro-in-law may not be so hard headed next time.
