Chotard today - 8-17-11

I got a bone to pick with Barbie... Watched her on the 10pm weather and she said no chance of rain today, 20% tomorrow afternoon... I spent 2-3 hours at the landing for fear of lightening and thank goodness for my trip to Home Depot for those SunBrellas. One on each end bout cover it.. had not been for the wind and lightening maybe could have caught a real good mess. Wound up with 22 and only one dink, bout 50 or 60 gar. I don't have a pic of them as my partner scavanged the most of them. I do have a couple on my phone I will post just for some proof that we went. Really, we did have way more than a 7 limit that weighed over 1 1/2 lb each.

Yes, She is on Ch 3 here in Jackson..
Thanks, now I have to get some more baits and get to painting, those garballs eat em for 3 meals a day.

Also, my first encounter with those Asian Carp, a bunch of them on the south end of Chotard.

I have some cranks with gouges in them from gar teeth. Watch out those carp will knock you out if they hit you.

I had more fun yesterday even if I was catching garballs.

We did, that's where we caught most of them, less gar, no flying carp and not a dink in the bunch from there...

I've always wanted to spider rig those lakes in the fall... Heard of some pigs comin outta there

Mo, come on down bout late January or February and we'll go. Gar are gone by then and if it's on, MAN It's on

Maybe I can save up for a late january trip
