First time out in a coupple months

Well I tried fishing again today for the first time in a few month. (first mistake)

Got all the gear loaded an checked the boat out i thought lol, off to the lake. Made it to the lake after a few stops for gas ,snacks an such. Backed the boat in the water an jumped in to fire it up, battery was almost dead. Ok no problem i'll use the TM batt to fire it up. Well that was dead too, I knew i forgot something  :-[

So off to the nearest walmart i go, buy a new batt and back to the lake. We got it off the trailer and headed out to some of the spots i always catch fish on. First cast my buddy has a little one, thought it was going to turn into a good day.  We fished for another few hours and only landed about 3 or 4 small ones, broke off on a good frog bite but never got to see it.

I was also going to this lake to look at a deer hunting spot i picked out this spring, well i couldn't beach the boat because the water had dropped about 5 foot since the last time i was out. So my day didn't go as planned but atleast i got out on the water again lol. I hope to make it out again before hunting season.  The water temp has dropped into the low 70's now and think they should start biting again pretty good and can't wait to get in a good day since its been too long.
