My how could this happen at LOZ the mud hole and filthy lake

[fishinwrench]

When I go out it's usually for 4-5 hours and I always shoot for 5 fish that will go 12lbs.  

Typically I fall between 9 and 11, but I bust 15+ often enough that I'm not surprised when it happens.    20+ is cause for a celebration, a few phone calls or text messages to brag about it, and several pics.  

17-18lbs. just pisses me off because I know it was just a tiny little smidgen of bad luck that kept me under 20.  And of course I'll buckle down and go the next day.....and I'll be lucky to top 10lbs. 🙄

Fishing, with a goal in mind, is just a recipe for frustration. I don't even know why I do it.

We need to go fishing sometime Harry!

I would love to do that Mitch. I kind of thought you guys would have your annual get together out here at the same place. I cannot fish many hours and using anything like a crank bait is not going to happen. I also do not fish the drop shot like I did then. I use a lot shorter rig. I pretty much am stuck using the plastics pitching and drop shooting. Got another suggestion for you to mold and market; It is a 6 inch or 6 1/2" Wacky.worm about 1/2 to 5/8 inch thick. I just bought 40 of them close to those dimensions from Big Bite Baits. There're people I know out there that do very well using a wacky worm flipping it Texas style or on a jig.Now that said I might be dead by sundown. One last note Mitch my Friend Rhonda is moving down here. And will be my neighbor across the lake by the end of the month. At least she will be when  she is not running all over the world. A real fine down to earth lady
