Great day on the water ! Most of the day was so nice, it would have been hard to ask for better weather.
Met up with fishnpro40 at 3:30 am and headed up to meet with MGB at 4:30 so we could continue on to BL and meet up with the rest of the folks. When we got there, the temp hovered in the teens and it was a bit brisk getting out on the water at first. But, as soon as the sun came up and we got out on the lake, it warmed up and became quite comfortable. The water was calm all day and hardly any wind to speak off.
We all had a great time fishing and catching with the occassional good conversation thrown in. It was good seeing the other BFTrs on the water, as it seemed for part of the day, we all ended up in the same vicinity on that very big lake. It was a hoot being ring side and seeing AFDan fight the big one he pulled in - Congrats AFDan on that nice 13.5 pounder !
One thing - although we all caught some nice fish and had a great time fishing and talking to the other folks, everyone on our boat got SKUNKED on the SALSA - we never saw ANY of THAT action.
OK, old coot what's up with that ?
