Hi Salenity

I Got to watch the 48 crash doesn't that count for something?

Hum, let me put it like this, I'm a line watcher and I can see the bright colors better. The sharpie gives me more confidence... I have had days I got snagged and had to break or cut the line and didn't have a sharpie with me it seems that I wouldn't get as many bites

I also use a hi-vis and a sharpie

The Royals and wins don't go together. If I remember correctly if they get a good player they end up trading them...

Btw water temps were between 39-42*

Wow!

Hey Retro, I win! I didn't put it on the scales but I bet it was 1.5''

Well, we made it to Melvern yesterday. It was a beautiful 80* bright and sunny day with a touch of wind (30+mph). The winds made it hard to fish anything under about 3 ounces! Needless to say we didn't get one single bite. We did talk to about half a dozen other boaters including one that was anchored near the ramp that said he'd talked to every boater that had used that ramp and none of them had caught anything or even had a bite... We were going from one spot to another and got into 3' waves and got SOAKED!!! We went to our backup plan we found a sheltered cove took off my shirt to dry it off and broke out the cooler of Beer and proceeded to get one hell of a sunburn! All and all it was a great day!

Did you kill it?

Are you guys fishing tomorrow?

Trout tournament next wed/thu ?

I can't tell is that a Venom? I had a Cajun with a 200 Venom.

Looks like 11 fish? Great fish! I want to go next time!

I don't know if he'll have it by then. I don't think he has actually seen it yet.

As of now Wachati's boat doesn't run.

I have fished a jig with a bit of pink in it but It didn't work well

If we are in the boat together and the pinks working for you and I'm not catching anything ill beg for something Pink I'm not proud

I just can't do it

You da mannnnn!!!

Melvern is the only lake I've ever used the Ned

***TIP*** Don't give your favorite bait a name someone will want to ban it!

Cool, will do. It looks like we'll only be able to stay for 3-4 hours but that should give us an idea if they are biting yet

I have a couple of the $30 Shimano's that work fine.

The 7'6 Veritas is a great rod!
