Opinions on what makes a good trip - 05/13/19 12:56 PM
Lake of the Pines was tough Sunday. 15' above normal pool strong north wind with 3' white caps made just being in the boat without getting pitched out a challenge.
I had a family of 5 and they fished hard for 6 hours. We only managed to put 16 crappie and 10 sandbass in the boat and another 15 or 20 small sandbass thrown back
On the flip side it was a pure pleasure to be around such well mannered kids and everyone seemed to be having fun
I felt awful as I was standing cleaning their fish.
When I had all their fish bagged up so they could hit the road, they told me that they had all had a great day and thanked me profusely.
What makes a good trip for you. I guess I am spoiled as I expect to catch a limit with a few 2 # every trip.
