A tough afternoon with the wind
Wind........my own personal Achilles heel, it seems. After the rain stopped yesterday afternoon, I decided to head to the water for a bit of fishing. The wind was manageable here at home and when I launched just before 3. Had just about 45 minutes of acceptable conditions before the wind picked up...and up.....and up a bit more. I managed 3 fish in that time, 1 average bluegill, a 10ish inch crappie and a 12" crappie before things went out of balance.

Yea, they look a bit lonely in there but that's all I scored yesterday. I got off the water about 5. Just couldn't control the boat enough to do much of anything. I didn't have an anchor with me as the wind here at home was no big deal; I didn't expect it to pick up that much. Next time will be better!
