Windy

Ripnlips, Baithead, and Measure em all gathered together to face the weather. Looked like the best day to fish in a while, and my first time this year, dock shooting was to be the method. All started nice and mostly calm, the fishing was going well. Tony is really good at dock shooting, Richard has gotten a lot better, but me, mine just plunked into the water. Every once in a while I made a good shot, but that is once in a very long while. Fish were caught by all and fun was had. I had watched the news the night before and they said the wind would pick up around noon. Well the wind came up and I looked at my watch and yep. 1155 and the wind started. It was an up and down ride across the lake to get out of the wind. But once that was made more shooting was done under the docks. Now the real fun part was getting back to the launch ramp and getting the boat back on the trailer, but Richard did an excellent job, got a little wet but not as bad as it could have been, nothing like the Mississippi boat ride. We helped another fisherman get his boat out at the ramp, it was really rolling by then. A good day with good friends and looking forward to going again. Attached some picks cause Richard says if there are not pictures it didn't happen.Attachment 256217Attachment 256218Attachment 256216

Great job guys

don't ya just love it when a plan comes together, congrats. on the outing

Nice job. Yes loading a boat in bad wind is rough.

Good thing it is cool out and nobody on the docks with you three shooting at them. I am pretty good and hitting the cross bar, 1/8" off from being a perfect shot. Nice pictures and good report. Thanks,

Nice!

Great job. Need to try that some day

Good job boys, looks like a nice day. Thanks for the report and pics.

good to see someone was out here in MO, way to show us guys and nice pics.

Braver then me I wanted to go but that wind was vicious, nice going...dock shooting is about 30% technique and 70% having the right equipment.

Was a good time for sure. Have not been able to get the three of us out there for some time hope we can do it more soon. Great post Paul and good pics for sure. I have to admit I look the best.:biggrin

Notice paul didn't say fishes were caught by all....cuz then we would of had to leave Richard out. lol Oh wait it was Paul and the net getting blamed. I didn't see nothing and if no pictures...it didn't happen.

hate fishing in the wind with the bite so light now its tough feeling it in windy conditions
