Hi all.
Number One and I were set up little West of where we were on Sunday in about 4.5 feet of water. One Scoop of Jimmy's finest at 15:10. At 16:00 We had nothing so I stepped out for some relief. Number one pulls up two nine inchers on my rod but one outsmarted her and escaped. I says at least I am not skunked. She moves her chair as far away from me as she can. At 16:30 I ask her if we should out deeper or in shallower. She says out deeper.
I get us set up and fishing in 4 feet of water a couple of hundred yards away. Nothing until 17:45. We get a flurry of action and I manage 7 more nines. At 18:10 I get a monster. I see stripes so I know it's a Perch. I pull up it pulls down. Number One yelps that dhe also has monster. I am pulling, she is pulling, we're both going nuts. I get mine out of the hole then back down it goes, this is crazy. I get it up then my line breaks. Bummer. Number one is duking it with her fish and gets it out. It's a beauty 13 incher but no way it puts up that kind of fight. Sure enough the fish has my gear hanging from it mouth bobber and all. She looks at me with a Cheshire grin and says at east I am not skunked.
It was tough. 9 bites and nine fish but nothing else.
Cheers, Clark
