Well my plan was to meet up with Goody (Paul) on Monday but the wife unit had other plans for me in the morning. I finally got on the road around 10:30 am and got to the Flats around 12:45 and was on the water by 1:30. I made my way to Sparky1423 (Jeremy) secret spot. I was marking fish all over but could not make them bite. I was met by Yakinfish18 (Rob G.) around 4:30. He trolled all over and managed to catch a 16" and an 11". We called it quits around 7:30, the muscle across the top of both shoulders was screaming.
I retired to my hotel where I gobbled down some KFC chicken and swallowed 3 alieve before crawling into the sack. The alarm went off at 5 am and I stumbled out of bed and into the shower. I was on the road at 5:30 and arrived at Tidings before 6 am. While I was unloading another snaggedline yaker showed up Seapinto (Ryan) we paired up and headed out. This morning I opened two new Smithwick suspending Roages and tied them on before paddling out.
We got about half way to our destination and I decided to drop the lures and start trolling. I didn't even go 50 yards and the left rod went down. Hooked up on a 22" striper on the Lemon Lime Crush colored Roage.
I got the fish to the yak and remembered the story that Goody (Paul) had told me about loosing one of the bogoa grip. I got up on the measuring board to confirm the size and it was a keeper. When I went to take pictures it flopped up and broke my measuring board (Plano model) ok enough rambling here is a picture of the fish and the lure.
