Thanks fellas! It was good to finally meet y’all Matt. I feel like your my brother from another mother after all our TFF conversations over the last 3 yrs. Let’s definitely get the boys together this winter! We’re always down to fish. I will bring the bait and we can jump on that slick catfishn machine of yours...

Not bad for a BC day!!! Congrats to the 4 of you!!!
Glad you got out of there before the wind took you out. I have had those days, caught out in the middle of the bottom of Lake Limestone on the far side with a slipping prop (25 HP Evinrude) & a small back up motor (Johnson 3.5 HP) that kept dying out due to the boat going up & down with some serious waves. I was by myself.
Once we had wind so high, it broke my 1/4" solid braid line tied to the pier, but luckily it drifted into a pocket by the ramp & pier there. My mistake in wading it back to the pier, as finally it was so bad, it rolled it over right there. But we made it out safe, later than planned.
Of course now, after that, I built a raised front deck, along with fence planks (with silicone & brackets) around the top of the boat, to shield from high winds with the 14' Monark flat bottom. Then we set up two bilge pumps, along with a back up bait aerator if needed. Not to forget, a manual empty 5 gallon bucket, to boot (or I should say to bale).

That is a heck of a trip for those kids, you can tell Jaxon really wants to hold the fish but he's on cloud nine in the second picture I am already making up drag weights and Stinger hooks LOL
