I have been.  Seems like lately my frustration has been getting the best of me.  I've had plenty opportunities to get out and missed quite a few and when I have it's been 1-2hours of snags, lost lures, errant casts, and line tangles.  Then I get frustrated and give up.  I've also been trying too many new techniques that I'm unfamiliar with. Sometimes I think I need to just go fishing.  That's when I do best and have good days.

I finally killed off that funk!!  Went down to the creek yesterday and caught several largemouth and smallmouth bass.  It was a great day to be out until the wind came up in the afternoon and started to throw me around like a rag doll.  Nothing huge, but good numbers with respectable size.  I'm sure the weather pattern had a lot to do with it as well.

Yep, when in a funk the best bet is to go fishing. 

I was in a funk most of this year, I wasn't able to get out much and when I did  not much happened. About mid summer me and a buddy had a good overnighter on Niangua River, later me and the brother did two three day trips on the Gasconade and had exceptional fishing. Funk over.

numbers of trips this year for me are down a little bit, but I've had a lot of good trips. I've fished OK, TX, LA, AR, and MO.

About to head out on a mulitday adventure tomorrow. B) 39 species of fish caught so far. Not sure that I'll add anything new over the next three days

If they wil ver get the water bled out of BSL, I'll get to start abusing trout with a Zig Jig again. I am MORE than mad at em.
