I mean, we had frost Thursday night....and Sunday night it was too hot to
open the windows, at least for us old luxury minded folks.

Anyhow, the wife and I and the dog walked down to the river. While they
strolled the park I hopped in the river and threw a few wooly buggers. I
fished for an hour and caught two smallmouth - smallish but feisty and six
rock bass.


The rock bass were exceptionally fat, of a disagreeable temperament and put
a healthy bend in a five weight.

I remember Tom joking (very politely and with much grace) when we were
fishing below three streamer Stan's and I was down stream and found a honey
hole of rock bass...I stayed there!

I'm tellin' ya, ounce for ounce, they are the baddest on the planet.

Anyhow the weather has finally broke for us here in Ohio...good times a
comin'!

The lake in northern Minnesota that we go to for a week every summer
is crawling with rock bass. Too much fun and, in that lake at least,
tasty.
