Andy, I have walked in your shoes. The moment I saw this picture my heart sank. So did my wife's. She remembers well.  We are praying for you and **** and please let her know we are thinking of her.

@A-Jay What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.-Henry Stanley Haskins You are both in my prayers.

Just got the boat Serviced yesterday and decided to try one last fishing trip before Christmas. Worked hard to get 8 bass in the boat today.

a  couple 2 pounders were the largest . One of these days I will figure out these winter cooling lake fish.

Thanks @Bluebasser86. After talking to you I switched over to  a rattletrap and got a few more in the boat.

Even though the Shakyhead is my go to winter bait. It was not the ticket today.

It always amazes me how shallow these fish can be in winter. the 2 pounder in the picture hit a rattle trap in 1 foot of water.

 

 

 

 

8 fish on Dec 21 in KS sounds like a good day to me.  Good looking fish.

I lost a big one right after we talked to you that pulled off a crankbait, had 3 big ones come off today, not sure why. Still managed 3 keepers and 17 bass plus a bunch of bass, a heartbreaker of a drum, a catfish, and a huge gizzard shad.

Just started two weeks holidays, best way to get things started is on the couch with the wife and a bottle of wine and the best movie ever made (at least for this time of year).

I caught most of the fish after I talked to you in the cove past the outlet.

didn't catch anything on the cold side of the lake, but I was marking a lot of fish by the power lines.

I need to get over the winter cold water lake mentality. these warm water fish seem to hold a lot shallower.

Just kidding of course. Well said @slonezp!

 

@A-Jay, my fingers are crossed for both of you. Merry Christmas. I won't say it, but I have a feeling the lord will bless you guys this Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone.

I received a holiday greetings e-mail from Kast King, with this picture.

Thought the Whitetails were an interesting take on the St. Nick theme.

The only thing I steal is the hearts of those around me.

1st day on ice for the young ladd went far better than expected!

Rare sight in Mississippi, think this was last year.

First time since mid October that we’ve made it out on the water, no boat this time though ?. Only stayed out for a couple hours but managed one nice trout for dinner tonight though. 

Went Old School today ~

Chloe is just exhausted from all this Christmas excitement. 

Good sign. (Photo-Fish Sting)

Blue brought back memories of my Golden Retriever Madison, best dog I ever had.

 

 

 

Looks like there's gonna be a rumble. 

Another great sunset as I headed in to the ramp this evening.
