The Double Trouble syndrome
Well as it often happens on the weekend , my wife was along for one of my ketch fests .....
She was not in hammer mode and started blaming her combo and me as I slung fisheez ......rotfl
Every time I ripped one she would go on and on about where is my red rod ?......:banghead
I told her over and over it is just a case of operator error ....! :Rofl
It went on for a while :deadhorse .....and then it happened .......
I finally said ....
Give ME your ding dong dang rod and let me show ya the fish have no clue what rod is in what or who's hand and or how much it costs and or etc. etc .etc ......
Well I thunk you know what , there is a lesson to be taught here and this is a golden opportunity to prove my point and set up a tandem jig rig on her Zebco/ Shakespeare combo and made the cast .....
Here we go ya"ll ,,,,,jigs settle a bit out in open water as I sit on the dock in the shade and I start a slow retrieve....rod loads up nicely and me set the "hooks" and at this point I said a quick thank you to the powers to be as up came my first DOUBLE >>>> :Rofl
My second cast produced yet ANOTHER and it became my favorite combo JUST LIKE DAT ! :Rofl:Rofl:Rofl
I went on to double trouble them crappie like it was scripted for a movie er sumthin and EVEN had me one double that was black bass and a crappie at the same time !
We Sure did laugh it up and I ribbed the fire out of her as they came in 2 at a time ....
EVEN went so far as to lay the rod right down on the edge of the dock as I cranked them jigs back to me before I set the hook .....rotfl
Needless to say , my point was well taken and to be sure don't go and EVER think you need an expensive hammer to drive ya some nails ....FOR SURE .....
KABOOM is the word ....:highfive
p.s. the bass managed to toss off the crappie before I could get an image capture , fish were out in the deeper water and wanting it drug back close to the bottom in a methodically slow speed with little to no extra action in the late afternoon .
