beat the heat on stockton

got up early and headed to the lake, Stockton Lake as it were. the first brush pile was good, lost 4 at the side of the boat, and put 9 in the live well, was moving to a new spot and see a school of shad away from the brush tossed a jig and let fall, caught two more, good day for sure. home early. 22 ft of water, glow chartreuse jig, 1/32 oz jig. fish were on top of the brush for the most part. just drop into the brush and when you see a stop, start reeling up, caught a couple pitching and let fall, Not as good as Rick Flint on that but he showed me a thing or two last summer and I remembered how to do it, after 9 AM it warmed up so I took a boat ride and looked for brush, found some. marked same. The new batteries worked great. plenty of torque now.

Hey Beagle, is that the same Rick Flint that worked for MoDOT as a land Surveyor out of Springfield?

I do not know, but I know he worked for the Conservation agency for 30 + years.
