Flyin' Solo

[danbouck]

More of a photography report but here ya go.

 

I had the day off yesterday so later in the afternoon I headed down to the boat to do some evening fishing. I knew it was a gamble because of the weather but I had the chance for some R & R so I took it.

 

It poured down the whole way with lightning EVERYWHERE! I was about to turn around when I saw this

 

 

 

So I kept going and was rewarded with a couple hours of great weather. The bay on the other hand wasn't so nice lol! I went out a bit and decided to come back in since I was solo and I started casting at the dock.

 

I ran into a ton of these little guys.

 

 

I managed one decent pike but it decided to slip out of my hands before I got the camera. Did see a bunch of carp in the channel as well as a gold koi The lighting in the distance was fantastic to watch so I did a bit of this for a while.

 

 

The sky was doing some weird things that was pretty interesting to watch. This one had me a little worried though

 

 

I hung out through it all and I was rewarded with these shots

 

 

 

I watched the insane lightning show over the lake and finally headed home around 10PM.

For a robust man you have surprisingly dainty feet.

Fire Tiger J-9's, are there any better lures?

Nice report.

This site has some weird posts every once in a while. Dainty? Robust?......................could be time to change channels...........

 

Were you using those for bait? I tell my kids, dangle your toes over the edge of the boat and don't be surprised if a snapping turtle thinks they are candy.

Funny you say that a couple weeks ago I had my feet in the water and a giant snapping turtle came out from under the dock!
