Vacation Fishing - 07/20/18 04:01 PM
Well I picked the hottest week of the year to take some of my vacation. Still managed to get some fishing in though. Would of done some more except for some unexpected things that popped up.
Last Friday evening headed out about 7 PM. Bass weren't interested so I put on a squirmy worm
(basically a San Juan worm made out of plastic) and caught these:
I think a squirmy worm in a larger size would make a good bass fly. They work good on sunfish, but get torn up pretty quickly.
Monday I took my truck in for its 100k maintenance. Same day the AC stopped working. Turned out it was a stuck valve. The AC guy replaced it Tuesday. Wednesday I took the wife to Fort Worth for an eye exam and new glasses in the morning and ran errands in the afternoon. Managed a little fishing that evening and caught another bluegill and a small bass on a baby bugger.
This morning I caught a 1 lb crappie and a couple of small bass.
I had planned on doing more fishing, but I was lucky to catch a few.
