Man Thats rough Mr GeneC, Sorry to hear your misfortune with the boat.. Look on the bright side you caught 89 crappie more than I this week LOL! Catching on rockpiles? Ill have to add that to my list of to-do's Thanks for the report.

What luck-- when it rains it pours! I've heard some say that any landing you can walk away from, is a good landing! That 14"-er earned you braggin' rights! thanks for the report!

That really was quite a week.

I have weeks like that too but mine happen while working. I don't know what is worse. Days like the week You had make You appreciate the good days more. Sorry to hear about all the issues with Your Wife feeling bad and then her hitting the rocks. That had to just be icing on the cake for both of You. Get the boat patched up and take Your better half out again soon. Things will chill out soon as crap usually comes in spurts. Good Luck. Sounds like Ya need some.CF

Gene, a rough week for sure. I hope all the bad luck is over . Hang in there and we will see you next weekend.

Hi! look at it this way, your bad luck is out of the way now and you came through it ok.. Your all set the the rest of the fall and winter!

Sounds like a rough week for sure. I hope this upcoming week gets much better for both of you. Hopefully we will be able to come down and see y'all soon.

Sorry for the bad luck. It's a wonder we don't have more go wrong when trying to get out fishing

You have luck like me. Backed off the bank hit stump in rev. broke one blade off prop. Got boat back on trailer went home. New prop back on water next weekend. Hope the good luck follows us both out at Kerr.
