So. Early in the morning. Beautiful chunky monkey

The fish. Not Dae. 

10 small bass in between i wont show cause all small and yada yada 

Then the bonding moment happened.

Daelyn was throwing a prototype lure from some effing company on her travel rig. Little zebco protege. And this guy came up and smoked it. Crushed it. Demolished it. Threw itself out of the water 3 times trying to throw it. And finally pulled enough drag to pull dae into the weeds.

100% bound up, no chance of yoinking him through on 10lb mono. And lure be dammed we werent gonna leave a bass with hooks in his face. So i stripped down and jumped into 10ft of water at 49°. And daelyn took to the hip waders and between the two of us we managed to get into the cat tails far enough to free him.

25mins for one fish. Little 2.75lb bass. 

And a dope story.

Thats offically one of the coolest shelfs ever.

The last time he fished up there he was 90 or close to it.  They got a guide one day and the guide wouldn’t let him use his own tackle....said it was to collectible.  I’ve got severa things in that cabinet of his.  Also have a Muskie mount of his.  Will try and get a pic of it when I get time

Here’s a few pics. Second pic is Grandpa with that fish some time in the 60’s I believe.  Third and Fourth are pics of the rest of that cabinet.  I don’t collect old lures but have picked up a few that are in there.  Most were his.

The ladies dig that gramps mobile?  ?

No...f*** no

 

It is the most uncool car in the world. 

 

Only ting cool about that car is its not actually a town car. Engine cratered at 27k and the shop that owned it pulled a 3 valve 4.6 out of a mustang. Wiring is a mess under it still. But she hauls ass compared to its factory v8 counterpart.

My 93yo mom has one just like it only blue. She is the hit of the assisted living home where she lives. Any time there is talk of a breakout, they say they're going to get Betty's Lincoln and make a run for the border?. Don't sell it short, the chicks do dig it????

Nice job Dae show runner how it's done. Kinda hard to miss a fish with that size mouth runner haha.   I've never gotten into it but do you 2 ever do any fly fishing?

I’ve tried to get him to but he doesn’t want any....  Makes those trout a lot more fun to catch.

Living in Colorado we have Eagle Claw company not super far from us. So fly ficchin is popular. 

On that note. I tried fly ficchin once. And broke a 500$ pole. 

Daelyn will fly ficch when the top water bite is good. But even she doesnt do it much. Since you run the risk of snagging a bass cat or carp doing fly ficchin down where we live. You have to be a bit more careful.

Had to fight through some seriously bullsh** storms today. Hail. Rain. Wind. Wind. Dirt. Wind.

But...ficch. 

We couldnt take pictures of all of them. The wind was blowing so hard that we didnt want to dry them out.

But. Catficch that was a team effort because of a bad hookset.

Big bass

And tiny bass.
