Hi All,
Just to let you know bar fishing has been ...... well ..... in one word ........... AWESOME :!: :!:
My buddy, his wife, and I camped out Friday after work and came home Sunday Afternoon. He had the day off so he set up camp. He got to our spot about 7:00 am and caught his red within an hour after getting there. His wife and I joined him about 6:00 pm Friday night. We threw out the bar rigs and we both had 2 male reds 16 & 21 pounds on the beach within 2 hours.
SOOOOOOO ....... we had a few drinks .... played some crib ....... sat by the fire ...... told some old lies ...... watched the moon come up ........ and then hit the sack about 10:00 pm. Isn't life great???
Got up at 5:30 and threw out the bar rods again ..........1st fish caught at approx. 7:15 am a very nice 16 pound red buck. Caught and released a red doe about 19 pounds about 8:10 am. Then we lost one ..... then another ......... darn it.
Wouldn't you know it ........ things went quiet for quite awhile .... but we figured we'd head home with our prizes and broke camp slowly planning to leave about 3:00 pm. Nothing happening, so at 2:00 we started to put everything else in the boats ..... except our chairs, rods, and tackle boxes.
Wouldn't you know it .... another run came in about 2:45 just before we were going to pack it in .... caught two more reds .... one a silver bullet ...... both males ......... 18 and 24 pounds.
Needless to say we'll be out again tomorrow am ...... will let you know how we do ....
