Black Friday Report

Early this morning the stores were practically empty. We got back from shopping pretty early. The wife went to take a nap. I hooked to the boat and headed to the launch. I got in the water at 10:30. I immediately went to catching. Catching enough wind to blow the boat all the way to Chattanooga. I had gotten a dock shooting rod I was eager to try out. Second shot under the dock produced a fish. Then it went into steady slow mode. The wind was blowing so hard the line left the end of the rod and arched 6 feet in the air floating there. Hard to keep a jig down where the fish are.

They would hit any color as long as it was Blue Ice.
I tried to feed them any other color I had. I got no takers. Water temp was 47 degrees when I went in and 51 when I loaded on the trailer. Water was down about 6 feet. It was a good day I got to feel the thump.

Thanks for the report.

I was glad to get some good weather to go

DUDE. I know that had to been TOUGH. I was working the property, feeling that N/NE wind at about 100mph thinking how tough it woulda been. I FROZE TO DEATH and was never more than 25YDS from the fire.

Hoping to provide some kind of info tomorrow or Monday, good or bad. We'll see :cheers2

Spotlock was ramping up to 8 to hold position. Wind blowing the spray from the waves across the boat.

Good job but too cold for me!

Cold wasn't bad. The wind would flat cut through you
