I might. It all depends on what my wife has planned. I tried Friday evening. The bugs ran me off. When you kill 3-4 bugs every time you blink it's hard to make yourself stay.

I can't handle that either. I bought a therma cell thing that runs them skitter's off, but haven't tried it out yet, but people say they work good if it ain't no wind blowing. Good Fishing.....:fishQuote:

I did catch a couple small black crappie though.

I recently added a strip of green LEDs to one side of my boat. I was surprised how many bugs/skeeters it attracted.

I see a lot of cottonmouth at both Adams and Green's in the trees this time of year and they all scare me regardless of the time of day. Sometimes get within 3-5 feet of them before I see them, although I am always looking ahead, up, down, and around.Quote:

Took my things out of boat and went to car wash. Also had a run in between a cottonmouth and trolling motor, at the Hole in the wall at Piney chute.
