Fun Day

[Ham]

I made a lengthy drive to Fish smallies out of the trout boat. I could have stayed local and punched 100 trout in the face, but I wasn’t feeling it.

I  ran some scary shallow stuff full of big wood that would have been disastrous to hit. I ended up jamming my jet with rocks and lost a lot of fishing time clearing that. 

I caught 61 fish and best I can tell 11 species. I had a lot of fish come unbuttoned. Current does that . 

I had an 18 1/2 Smallie on a crankbait. Ned was underwhelming yesterday. A few on Topwater, but disappointingly few. 

You guys don’t understand How good John is at Micro fishing. It is a different skill set to spot an individual tiny fish and successfully target them. Current, water clarity, glare, presbyopia, and competing other fish all vex you. I did a little of that thing yesterday and remembered how good at it he is.

any how, the 61  fish yesterday puts me over 2000 fish caught for the 10 th year in a row. I still have plenty of time left to get past 3000 and will see how it all ends up, but I’m thinking I will get to 30,000 Fish caught since I startrd keeping a hard count in 2008.
