Default Cold Water Bassin

Dave called today, asked if I wanted to float a boat and catch some
crappies. The wife and kids were out and work was done for the day, we had
about 45 minutes till dark so what the heck. The boat had already been
stored under the deck but not covered, we hoisted it on top of his Honda and
treked the mile to the lake. The lake was flat as flat could be, but
starting to get very cold out as light drifted away. We fished for about
twenty minutes with both of us setting hooks on everything and anything but
not a fish. We were fishing some samll 1/4 oz wal mart jigs with white grub
twisty tails.. you know the pre-packaged ones 5 for 1.50 type. I got a good
bite and yanked back... an my pole doubles over, (this is no crappie here).
the fish surged down and would not come up, I eventually lost him in the
sticks down below on my 6 lb test. We fished for a bit and then Dave
switched to a white grub too. We were drifting back in as it got dark right
past the spot where my fish got off and Dave hooks into a good fish. His rod
is doubled down as the fish just dove under the boat repeatedly.. but check
the smile on ABPF when he landed the beaut!!! Was it the same fish? I doubt
it, more likely there were a few holding there, I'll never doubt you again
Warren.. I guess it's not over until it's over. If not for it getting dark
and colder we might have had a chance at a few more in those sticks. Maybe
tomorrow.


Randy-
