after work last night.. I decided to see if I couldnt hit the water for a bit (an hour or 2)..LOL... yeah right!!

I got the about 11:30pm

With a new pattern in the box (The HIBERNATOR) ... I headed to the flats..

2 cast and the first fish was hooked up... 2 casts.. 2 strikes.... then 4 fish in a row..

back and forth.. missed some.. hooked some.

within an hour I had 15+ fish... I decided that was enough and the rain was coming down..

As I turned around to head out.. I saw a car light.. well I head up and started to chat.. 3 young men get ready to face the night.

well after talking to them for a few minutes, we decided since the water was off to head to the big hole..

within minutes all 4 of us was into fish and catching the pretty good... (Yes with the HIBERNATOR).

most all the fish were FAT... very FAT..

full of fight.. and just a great time..

after it was all said and done.. around 3am...

I had caught over 40 + fish
