went fishin-finally
6 am i put my lil boat in at 49 launch. i then ran 13 miles to the tailrace hole. after a week of sitting around knowing the lake should have a top water bite. i borrowed a jitter bug from my dad. i started to throw it along the rocks, 3rd cast i hang up a good one. as i am a bit skittish bout further injury to my wrist i used both hands on the hook set.the fish pulled my scale down to 4.2 pounds. i catch another short fish on the jitter bug. not bad seeing i can't cast but 3/4 as far as i use to with out causing pain.. i catch a short crappie on a 4" worm and a 2.3 pounder on the same worm.. as i know of only one guy who aint working this time of morning i was totally stoked from the 4 pounder.. i give the good mr lizard a call while idlin out to open water. he is fishing and not caught anything at this point.. upon reaching open water. i run wot 6 miles to riles creek. i start throwing a baby bushog and a 4" worm. i trade out the bushog for a pnj..i look up from throwin a nother blasted short crappie back a all black trx20 tritoon comes tearin by with 2 guys you never want to see in the same boat..both club members greetings were exchanged -the bearded one complaining about "having to push pole this barge about" the take off and set down 400 yards down stream of me..i catch a 1.5 pounder out of the closest tree on a pnj..some thing i have been working on.as i release this keeper fish my cell phone starts doing the happy dance on my boat's dash. it is a VERY excited mr lizard. who states "i just caught a NEW personal best!! are you happy for me?" i think at this point i started cussing under my breath-not sure if he took my dead silence for aww or not..i think he said 29"by 19.75" -not sure he was breaking up-which to me spells TOAD..after hanging up i run to the lower lake area start throwing my favorite lipless bait a carolina chip repaint of a 1/4oz strike king.. catching a 3.3 pound bass off a cliff face. made about 50 more cast my wrist starts causing pain knowing better to push it i head for the launch.. after i strapped up an was waiting for traffic to clear i called reb's cell phone spoke with his holiness about demanding a name on this forum be changed from lizardsrule to flukesrule...that and trying to figure out just who could actually beat a toad that big on this forum...
at this point i was thrilled with actually catching a fish.even though i was somewhat limited in lenth and ability of my casting.. zooker

Might want to save some of those fish for the Tuckertown tournament on 20 May.
Actually, I didn't mean "save" just remember were it was that you put them back ! Granted, you know that they will most likely move. This time of year they are shallow, but what about the last part of May ? I know where I'll fish. By the way the guys that you saw weighed in 19 lbs last weekend.

Great day for you zooker. And no it wasn't a New Persoanl best, and the measurements are wrong, but never the less it was a HAWG! I'm sorry I rained on your day, I know my ears were burnig after I hung up the phone LOL. Hope you keep the healing going on and get back to the porn channels asap. There isn't anything better than the bite on a Jitterbug as far as I'm concerned. HMM, Flukesrule, I like the sound of that.

Well I'm glad lizards is down. If a northerner is gonna catch our bass, I'd rather it be a true outdoorsman than some yank with a spincaster and a nightcrawler catching 15 pounders off a dock.
