This probably been asked before. I work 8 days on and 6 days off. So I have a lot of time to fish. My wife is at work 3 days I'm home. I can fish as much as I want. I try not to take time away from her or my two teenage boys. Neither one of them want to fish or like to fis so I don't push it. The most days I have gone out is 3 days in a row. Today will be my 4th day out this week. Wife and boys out of town for a select basketball tourney. Yesterday I fished sunup to sundown. Cought 18 with my biggest fish just a little over 7lbs. So far this week I have cought over 80 fish. Not all big but fun none the less. Going to try to break a 100 today and see if I can top the 7lb'er.

Sounds like ya got a good streak going and if it's on Bridgeport then that's better than good. I just can't seem to get anything going over there, but maybe the next time there will be better water should be warmer then.

Roughly 10-15 days a month sometimes less depending on prior commitments.

Not Bridgeport, On Ray Roberts. Bridgeport is 10 minutes away but until it comes up, I don't care to get on it. Rough day at ray bobs. I only cought 5 today and didn't hit the 100 mark. Wind blew me off the lake about 1 o'clock. I did get to see some guy just about flip his boat on a stump running around 30 mph up by mouth of buck creek. He idled all the way out after that. Four days if fishing was a blast. Now it's time to get ready for the next time I'm home. My wife and I are headed to Fork for the TTFC and four more days if fishing. In the evening of course.

This is my schedule too. I don't enjoy fishing too many days in a row, terrible problem to have.

I work 14 and 14, try to fish at least 10 of the days I'm off. I only fish Saturday if there is a tournament I want to fish and usually fish Sunday morning while the wife is at church.

Headed to retirement and plan on moving to Lake Fork area. Plan on being on the water at least 4-5 days a week.
