    Default A wet Chicot fishin' trip


    Hey folks! Had eleven in the box today and fishing was fine around the 5' shallow trees on a black and char 1/16 lil hustler plastic when all of a sudden........the screws holding my pedestal ripped out from the base. You know what happens when that happens? Yep!! Lost my fav hat, my glasses and wrecked my cell phone! What a RUSH!! I stink like lake water. I quit and squished home to dry out my wallet and get a hot shower. One guy at the ramp looked at me really funny. Glad he didn't say anything! Still cleaned 11 fish!

    That'll add a little excitement to your trip! Glad it happened when it did instead of a 30 degree February day...maybe I should go check the screws on mine!
