Looks like the river has crested and will sloooooooooly start getting back to normal levels in a few weeks, should be good fishing for the slabfest on Monroe.
Nice looking fish Jeff, painting is done now it's time to find some specks.

I bombed out again ......
Too windy = Accuweather-dot-com said 5mph at 8am, I got to ramp and it was blowing, I wanted to see if motor was OK (It was),
Got to mouth of lake and took one of them rollers over the bow depositing approx 15-20 gals of water in my little boat,
I got the hint, turned tail and ran .........
Another 3 doz minnows free to live another day ......
Need to find a better weather predicting site ......
That has been my luck lately I am 1 for 4 trips. I hope the trip to Talquin will change my luck
Geez Danny thought you might use a few of those minnows in the river to find a few in transition to the lake possibly....on another note I only tested those waves getting out because I could take them straight on, if sideways not a chance, the funny thing is 2 guys in gheenoe's where on the west side Saturday, watched 1 hug the shoreline all the way back through the south end, realized with the water up another access is available.Quote:

Get to thinking bout being home eating some salt pork, grits and eggs = I'm outta here ! ! !
Ahh, you can do that anytime, I remember the phantom that would say, well I've spent the gas to come over here, might as well give her a go in the river, ect...
Thats funny. Bout 10 this morning I was wondering how Aunt Catfishes would feel me docking up and wanting to partake in the Sunday brunch all bloody and fish smelling.Quote:

If I can't trust the weather prediction site then am lost = costing gas and bait, no fun out there with the
wind = dissappointment, disillusionment, dispair, lonelyness, hopelessness, I feel a need to seek friendlier
more comfortable surroundings that beckon more better welcomings to me......
I got a line on where to find some Redfish up outta Scottsmore, might have to do a few trips that way till
the lake starts calling me back etc, etc ..... Right now it's telling me to stay away ........
Am tired, achs and pains, moving slow these days, might be reaching burnout. Got to take a break from fishin
and not even getting out for awhile = too many back to back failures = depression etc, etc ........
Oh ! ! ! ! !
Perhaps if all ya'll would send $25.00 I might just start to feel a little better, ..........maybe .............
(might take $50's) .......................
Talquin and Blackshear both were windy as heck Saturday, but Sunday was nice...Starting to watch the 10 day for now for Talquin. Hope it is as nice as today was!!! Nice catch and pics, Jeff....Keep em coming!!Quote:
