my GOSH .. Tarheel you should have hollared!!! I remember seeing the boat .. but didn't realize who you were. BB and I were talking about it a couple times when we passed fishing boats ... wondering if they were CFF members. Guess I'm going to have to break down and get a tshirt .. make it my fishing uniform!
Anyway ... the reason we scooted out under the bridge and popped up in the lake is because WHEN and his cousin were suppose to go fishing up by the nuclear plant. He said to come up and find him if we got out and he would definately show us the secret spots. Well we wasted the gas and searched every slough from Harrison Bay to Possum Creek .. couldn't find a blue/white Bullet with When and his cousin in it ANYWHERE! But probably did rasie a bunch a eyebrows as we cruised by and gawked at boats with 2 people in them using binoculars! I told BB next time we are going to have to get some accessories .. like walkie talkies and baseball caps so we look like we are official .. not just two girls out checking people with binoculars in the middle of the lake. So ... going to send WHEN a bill for the gas we wasted since he wasn't where he was suppose to be!
Fishing ... stunk! By the time we got done with our "search operation" it was getting late and we drove over to the secret spot ...
Mr. and Mrs. WhenWhy appear to have gotten a divorce and moved out! I can't blame her .. he was a lazy ole thing like BB said. Most their neighbors moved out too. We saw ONE catfish. The water was way down .. exposed the rock that Mrs. WhenWhy had choosen for a nursery. When we were at the secret spot Saturday ... the place was crawlin' with fish .. yesterday we didn't see a single sign that fish were ever there.
Needless to say we threw some plastics, I used a crank bait and rattle trap, just seeing if anything would bite but it didn't.
At 9:00 we left ... with a sick feeling because we are pretty sure Mr. WhenWhy did as his name sake, inticed us out for no good reason! Doubt we will see that fish again ... but we are hopeful the next fishing trip will be more successful.
Glad you all weren't empty handed ... but the fish in our spot have definately MOVED.
