When setting the hook have been know to give the little fishes flying lessons from one side of the boat to the other. I do apologize and explain to 'em that I thought their granddaddy had bit the soft plastic and that their eyes would uncross after a couple of minutes.

Caught 3, all bass. One was a keeper, barely. Launched about 6:45 at Oak Ridge, headed up the Sabine River. Wind was calm at sunrise but forecast was south wind at 10 - 15 for the day. Fished coves that had 4' - 6' of water, river banks with lay downs and sandy points. Caught 2 bass at the mouths of the coves on a black/blue jig, the third at the back of a cove on a white buzz bait. My son was with me, he did not catch anything. Threw everything in the tackle box at 'em. Water temp 56 - 60 degrees, cloudy and started with no wind then it started blowing hard. A little current in the river. Water was muddy on the river and stained in the coves. Did not see any grass or vegetation. Put the truck in drive at 11:09am and headed to the house.

Caught 6. 4 bass, 1 grinnel, 1 white perch. Bass were not keepers. Grinnel about 5 - 6 pounds, white perch was nice sized. Launched at Oak Ridge. On the water a little after 11:30am. Wind was blowing, heard there was a lake wind advisory, headed up the Sabine River. Fished in coves that had 4' - 6' of water, river banks with lay downs and sandy points. In the 2nd cove caught the first bass. Along the river bank caught the grinnel. 3rd cove caught 3 more bass and the white perch. Started with a jig, also threw a suspending jerk bait but no luck. Caught all the fish with a H&H black/chartreuse double bladed spinner bait. Did throw the jig on lay downs and stumps but not bites. Tried some lay downs in 10' - 15' of water but no bites. Tried a couple of sandy points but no bites. Water temp 56 - 60 degrees, cloudy and wind was BLOWING. A little current in the river. Water was muddy. Did not see any grass or vegetation. Put the truck in drive @ 6:18pm headed to the house. Going again tomorrow morning, plan is to see sunrise on the water. My son is going with me.

Welcome to Bass Resource! I hear depth perception is gone with one eye. If that is true, then making accurate cast might be one of those challenges you mentioned. What branch did you serve?
