The lord blessed me with a limit from bout 9 to 12 inch fish with more 9 and 10 than anything else.I was pleased . I was the only boat there(cane creek) for a good while.Caught fish in 14 to 16 fow mostly,color didnt seem to matter too much had 6 different colors and caught fish on all of them
kept these for the friday fish fry

I got my screw-in plug for the livewell installed and boy it was a JOB!!If I knew it involved all that it did I wouldnt have started it...I about needed to take all the floor out of the boat to get it out and it was like the drain hose drew up a couple inches and was too short when I RE installed it.It was very tight before I took it loose at the back of the boat.I had to do a little "riggin" to make up those couple inches with some pex pipe.cause you cant get a 1 1/8" barb-fitting like you can get a 1inch or 3/4" for water line repair...one inch pex is one and one eigth OD so I made it work.It didnt leak saturday,,whew!!

Wow! You found a good place for longlining?!? I aint had any luck pulling jigs since the grass shrimp went away back around the second week of june. Congrats on the catch. I know those will be a great meal. :)

Great report, catch, and a really good job with the picture. If you fish alone, and folks want to see pics, you must do what ya gotta do. Cograts on the nice limit, well done long lining in this heat. I have never been able to catch'em very good trolling once it gets this hot. Of coarse, I really don't try either. :dono

Good job Sam, I'd like to think I'll be able to get down there on soon, this weekend is out because of the crowd I'm sure will be there

Way to go Sam. I try to do that long line thing but aint got to much luck with it. Boat job looks a little tough there. Glad it came together for ya.

Nice catch! Sam those boats are a pain to work on. They sure don't make anything accessible but sounds like you got it going. :ThumbsUp

Glad you got on them. I know you probably had a few words about the floor and water line. :banghead Better you than me this time. I won't do my floor ever again, I'll sell the boat before I take that on again. Your fish look to be a good size for the picture nothing to be ashamed of. You should see some of John's fish.:Rofl Good job on both plans.:highfive

Great catch Sam! Nice to see some long lining fish this time of year. Looks like that live well job was quite a chore. Glad to here it worked well for you Saturday. Thanks for sharing the report and pictures.

Good job, thats the size fish I like to eat, 9 to 12 inches, I dont want them big ones to eat!

Nice job Sam thanks for sharing.

Nice Report Bearclaw. Good to cya out catching fish again. You sure got the long-line down real good.

Sounds like a successful trip and congrats on a limit. I had to replace the live well pump on my Tracker a couple of years back and that sucker was down under the back deck at the transom and you could not get in any position to work on it. It took two of us in shifts to get it done. Need somebody that weighs about a hundred pounds with really long arms to work on it.

good going Sam you and scooper got it gin on on Cain creek
