BM Saturday (late report)

[Texas Pete]

Had grandkids this weekend and decided to take the granddaughter for half a day. Didn't start out good for me. Started the motor and didn't realize the prop was sitting on the bottom, put it in reverse and broke something. Don't know what is broke, but won't go into either forward or reverse. Decided not to disappoint the gal with me, decided to do trolling motor only. Took 45 minutes to get where I'd planned to start. Found tons of all species in shallow water. Wound up with 23 crappie (males were dark and aggressive), 32 perch that hit like freight trains, 1 large pickerel, 3 nice bass (two were right at 2.5 lbs, and the third was 8 lbs, 5 oz.). Quite a fight on 4 lb. test, she made 3 jumps like a tarpon.

Had to work a while today, but I'm going to try it again tomorrow.

Don't know what has happened, but can't post pictures all of a sudden. Anybody else have the same problem?
