Mike McClelland leading the charge at Ross Barnett

[Guest]

Both, McClelland & Kevin Short stumbled today.

They didnt have a limit between the 2 of them.

That's too bad. Mike missed day 3 by 3 ounces.

I remember that was an issue other times they stopped there. Dubbed off my VHS copy of that 90's tmt a year or so ago and it was windy. Flat, open, and windy.

Kind of looks like trying to get loaded at Baxter with a north or northwest wind blowing.

Yeah, that kind of crap influences where I will fish at times. I am all for avoiding that if at all possible. The worst I ever had was at Lake Chico of all places. It is another Shallow flat lake on the alluvial flood plain. The ramp was nasty flat as well. I had that 3-4 foot rollers breaking over my trailer. I was solo too so I had to tie to a dock and climb onto a dock not meant for it (thru the railing around the dock) while the boat is rising and falling 3 feet. Guess where to back in the boat (only time I had ever used that ramp) and then cilmb down again and try to time a swell to get it on the trailer. If I hit a trough, the boat would have grounded on the ramp and not made it onto the trailer. Just Nasty.

you can actually drag bottom in those rollers if your in 4ft of water at those lakes.

Ive fished them both, not my kinda fun under those conditions.

Chicot & Horseshoe Lake are almost carbon copies of each other. Which is where I grew up fishing.

Mudflats & cypress trees for miles.

Just imagine trying to put a pontoon boat on a trailer in those conditions.

At least a toon wouldn't backwash as bad.
