11/13 Sunday........

Daylight to noon...kept 3 bass (big one 3.54#...20" long)..caught on my new rod & reel with white Boo Yah 3/8 0z spinnerbait & Colorado blades...Kept 17 sacs, big one 14"....bunch more real nice....I was ready to quit the sac fishing & try for a few more bass...the front end of the boat was next to a timber piling...as I started to troll away from the piling the TM got hung up in a monofilament net (like a gill net) with a big (3/8") rope all wrapped around the TM....tried to pull the TM up but it was hung to bad....couldn't budge it...had to lay down on my belly with scissors and started cutting away....finally got it loose to raise it and then had to cut it all away from the prop area....I thought maybe I should just quit for the day.....picked up everything, life jacket on, kill switch engaged and hit the starter...cranking battery dead.....I knew the time to replace it was close.....I think someone was giving me the signal to definitely quit for the day....those bass can wait another day.....after finding my pliers, I disconnected the cranking battery and hooked up to one of the TM batteries.....ZROOOOOM and we are off....it was a great day....the good news is I will soon have a new set of batteries....I think these are 4 years old....

"D"....I have plenty baits so I will pass on the contest....
