I didn’t think that I would see it. 7/22/21
I knew the day was coming sooner or later and it finally arrived today. Cuonthelake was skunked while crappie fishing. She almost got the skunk off herself, but the little short crappie zoomed to the top of the water and flipped its tail at her in mock derision and was gone.
I didn’t do much better myself. I caught a short crappie on an offshore structure on the very first cast of the morning, then followed that up with an 11” crappie on the next. I thought - “Hot dog! It’s gonna be a good day.”
Wrong. :banghead
I can say this for DK. I sure can find schools of fish. I just can’t make them bite when they are in a negative mood. I almost felt sorry for Candi as she got in a lot of casting and tying jigs practice. She broke off 8 times. But she was fishing in the right places. We just couldn’t find any dumb crappie. Lolol
We changed locations, lures, colors and I thought about getting out my perch colored hand grenades, but thought better of it. The highlight of the morning was when Candi gave me a bag of homemade peanut butter cookies. But we are like the old Timex watches. We will take our licking and keep on ticking.
