best monday in a long time (kindy lengthy)

[WaffleJaw]

so we found yet another spot at the end of my street!!...where we park our cars theres a pathway in the trees....we followed it about 20' and it opened up to a small pond,exploding with sunken timber,grassbed,coverage,and feed by a small creek that connects to where i normally fish

I couldnt believe it was right there hidden by my parking spot!
My buddy got there monday before me,and had a few catfish poles set up and was ripping bluegill out left and right......me of course,i set up for the bass.....he told me his spinners werent getting any action and switched to a bobber to get bluegill......so i tied on a t-rigged worm and was pitcing it into the sunken timber....tiny fish all over the worm and i pulled out one dink....so there are bass in here

then BOOM! my buddy's catfish bell/pole went nuts and he snatched it up and fought something big!!.....we both thought he nailed a big ole catfish......then i hear him say ''what the **** is that''.....i run over,and he's pulling in a 20''-24'' bowfin....Ive never seen anyone catch a bowfin before,let alone seen one in person..all i know is what i read,so it was a real treat for both of us.

Anyway, I switched to a chart / white buzz bait...the water completely still and i wanting to rip it up!....i was two cast away from switching to a popper....and then i got my BOOM! .....17'' 1.5-2lb LM bass......you cant tell in the picture....but im grinning big!!!

the night gets better!

so my wife this night was out with friends....once we were done and i cleaned up at home,she ask me to meet them at the bar (also down the street) i thought ''i deserve an award''

i get there and run into a friend of ours....about 8 months ago i tattooed this guy (Im a tattooist btw) and he had offer me a FREE 14 ft fiberglass jon boat......and my dumbass waited too long before calling..and of course he said he had someone else getting it

well monday he told me the guy never came and got it,and offered it to me again...plus for 200 bucks i get the trailer!!!!...

Im picking it up today after work!!!!!!
so after some registration/title....small outboard (my dad has an extra 5hp im hoping to borrow or buy) i will be on the water!!!

life is good
