Well me and the wife went without the grandsons, tired them out yesterday, shame us old folks just keep on goin & goin ............
The wife casts and into the tree it goes ( bobber) , I run the bow of the boat up to and into the tree, she dives in up to her waist....I caution her " Look out for snakes" about that time she says " THERE is a snake in there!" , shes backing out and I`m backin up ! She was within inches of that thing , water moccasin stretched out on a limb............
Photos taken AFTER the line was snapped , the bobber falls directly under him, we gave him the bobber :D
Caught a nice shellcracker and several small gills, lost a nice catfish , wife lost a gar.............
A 4th to remember

What I saw going into the tree...................



After breaking the line...........



Oh and the big cat I landed...........
