Shell Knob 4/22

[vpk2488]

Was able to get out this morning before had to head to work. Had a rough start but made the best of a bad situation. Put in just after 7 and couldn't get my motor started...dead cranking battery evidently. So got on the trolling motor...not much juice. Evidently one or both batteries didn't charge enough overnight. But there wasn't much wind and I had enough power to work with so just started down the bank. Started fishing the reliable ned and it didn't let me down. Fished little more that 2 hrs and caught 20 in probably 5-10 fow. Only 2-5 keepers probably but several nice 12"-15" spots. Don't know water temps cause didn't turn graph on. Made it back to ramp just in time as little storm and some lightning came in so knew it was time to go!

Thanks for the report. I have been in that situation with my brother-in-law many times with the boat not starting. Glad to see that you were able to get out and take advantage of some great fishing.
