Well went out and ran the boat after setting up all summer. It started and ran just fine.
Checked a couple of places nobody home then looked at a shallow slope 10 to 18 ft. deep. Fish were on it . Small fish so me and Terry said lets find some bigger ones and we can run the boat some more. A rule should never break leave fish to find more or bigger. Needless to say we did'nt find anymore. Caught 13 only stayed out about 1 1/2hrs. Not very good but better than a skunk.
Will most likely go out 2 nd shift if proline22o wants to go. Will report if We go.
Johnny

Glad to hear the boat ran well!!! And that rule needs to be chiseled into a stone tablet somewhere. No matter how many times we say it, we have all been burnt by it!!! Nice to see you reporting from Texas again.

WOW youre not really putting proline on your boat are you??? LOL just kiddin Greg. Gotta give ya a hard time.

Johnny,

Did you look between Lakeveiw and Lake country. I read a post that said they were there?

Me and proline went out on second shift. Terry called as I was unloading boat and said D gilbert had called and had been hammering them for two hours. We got there and D said they just quit. Oh well ,went looking for them . Shad were everywhere on the east bank for two miles but no fish under them.Did not find any fish anywhere.
Johnny

we looked literally everywhere

Sorry to hear the bad luck, The way i look at it a bad day fishing is better than a good day sitting home!

Greg, i see a pattern forming here!!!! LOL

it was amazing we checked every hump drop and ledge and nothing there caught a few where they were schooling

I hate ya'll didn't find any but it does make me feel better when someone knows the lake as well as you guys has the same kinda luck I have sometimes.

Same here! Somedays it just aint meant to happen...

Hey at least me and gregg did not sink the boat and Gregg fixed my live well pump so all was not lost.
Johnny

Sorry guys, I tried to get a hold of yall. Went on for 2 hours solid, est. 100+ easy. Kept limits for the guys at the fire station. Also 50+ cats, mostly dinks though. My boat is NO longer clean and NO jenx.

maybe we'll give her another go on monday johnny

What time D?

Well this settles am going out tomorrow.

from prolly 2 till 5pm

What is "prolly"?

short for probably

Ahhh, grasshopper...

PM back to ya.

I don't know about going on Sunday, still alot of boat traffic. I even went Saturday, which I normally don't, and it reminded me why.

Every time they started to surface, jet flies and skiers would run right through them. I just said forget it.

Even the bass fishermen didn't even give a [censored] about us OTHER FISHERMEN, blowing by ya a 50+ mph at 30 yards away.

I really see no difference in the WOT mentality between bass fisherman and recreational boaters.

I see a potential difference, the bass fishermen SHOULD know better but yet it don't slow them down. They just look at you like your in the way .

Yep!

Greg I hope you at least charged him a box of slabs .
