Scooter and I set out for yet another great day of fishing, we packed up the truck, the gear and the pups and headed
to our other favorite spot down at Guilford Lake around 9:30. Scooter was on a roll, each time he threw out he would bring
in another crappie, he was up by 6 before I even got my first one. We must have hit a school of crappie, each one we brought
in was 8" or bigger. We kept about 4 and released the rest, I wasn't up to cleaning a bucket full. By mid afternoon, the crappie
slowed down and the blue gill moved in but they were not big at all so we set them free. I wanted to keep the crappie to put
in our fish tank to keep Pee Wee busy, he's been lonely lately and keeps picking on the Pleco who kicks his butt, but anyway...
We got hot and bored about 3:30 and Butch and Sassy were getting restless so we decided to pack it up and head back. We caught
a good 3 dozen between us but it seemed more like a job than a relaxing day on the lake. We had fun and enjoyed the quality
time together. Well next week will hit the mid to upper 70's and my fanny will be enjoying another refreshing day jamming
with oldies rock and enjoying yet anoither great day fishing with my huney.
