Those Mad Katz rods are sick! I want to see that prototype Mul-T-Bar at the get together.
I am about 2 pay checks away from getting my new chart with a triple shot transducer. I was hoping to have it for the get together but I will have to wait a little longer. Can't wait to have that 12" display and the side imaging!
The wind was welcome after the weeks of dead flat calm and no bite! I had pretty good success early on Saturday on Lavon. Had a few 10s, a teener and a 22. Not too bad considering. After the rains last night and the forecast this week, I can't wait to get back out there.

Picked up the boat yesterday from the mechanic and itโs good to go. MulTbars arrived yesterday and are going on this evening. The adjustable knobs were not completely finished on the bars so I will have to wait another week before they arrive but I he sent temporary hex socket bolts that will lock them in place until the adjustable ones get here. Then Iโm loading the boat and it will finally be ready to fish. Weโll be hitting the water Sunday morning at sunrise and see if we remember how to catch fish! Itโs been 30 yrs since Iโve gone this long without a boat. Itโs been painful for both me and my son!

This has been the longest week waiting for the cold front and Saturday! I am ready to drag some big baits and catch some pigs! Just had my new 11970 delivered today too!

I am really looking forward to the weekend with this cold front coming through today. I snuck out for about an hour and a half at lunch yesterday and once the wind kicked up a little bit, I got bit. Had a really nice double on the planer boards. Ended up being a 10 and a 20 pounder... ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/10/full-115968-114431-double.jpg)

Nice ones Tim! Weโre fishing Sunday and forecast says 5 mph wind๐ It was forecast for 15mph when I checked it yesterday which had me envisioning Jaxon hugging big fish. Now Iโm not feeling as optimistic and I know weโre gonna have to grind just to put some fish in the boat! Ready to put in work regardless!

Nice ones, Tim!! I was also on Lake Lavon yesterday, and at one stage was fishing the same area as Tim. A lesson for me. We were both drifting the same general area, and after no bites I decided to bail and go home (been fishing since the first light). Tim hooked those fish after I bailed, so patience (and technique) paid off. I did catch a couple of dinks earlier. The water temp is still @ 75F fyi. The forecast was 10-15mph, gusting to 20mph. Mid morning and the lake was mirror smooth, no wind at all. ![[Linked Image]](https://photos.smugmug.com/Family/Retirement-in-Allen/i-CRwhkD5/0/36842ae1/L/A07BE95A-D05D-4A69-A0FE-342403862DB7-L.jpg) Rain is a coming!
