    Most fun I've had in a long time :kicking:


  3. You have gotta love the tournaments, we don't have any around here any more :yahoo: However, we still have plenty of inconsiderate anglers that think nothing of jumping in on your drift or burning through the area you took your time poling to. I just try and let it go, yelling just makes it worse.

     

    I Have been in Indianapolis this last week at the IAFC Fire Conference, so Last weekend was my last time out...had been bragging about the killer days to some friends from Wyoming who were coming down for business, sure enough...we went to St Joe Bay and proceeded to get our skunk on :whistle: Still had a great time though, water was nice and the scenery was a beautiful as ever.

     

    Have to work in the morning, will try to get out in the afternoon. Will update "a day on the bay" if we catch anything.

     

    Cheers...dave
